GreatNonprofits, GuideStar, and Charity Navigator announce the launch of the GreatNonprofits Social Justice Campaign to identify top-rated organizations working to end oppression and inequality worldwide.
GreatNonprofits, the leading provider of user-generated ratings and reviews of nonprofits, has partnered with several of the most celebrated organizations in the field for the July campaign.
Free Press, Global Fund for Women, Earth Rights International, Equality Now, Alliance for Justice, ThirdGoal, and American Constitution Society are joining GreatNonprofits to encourage volunteers and donors everywhere to log on and review a nonprofit.
GuideStar, the leading source of philanthropic information on the Internet, and Charity Navigator, America’s premier independent charity evaluator, are also partners.
GreatNonprofits’ user reviews are written by anyone with personal experience with a nonprofit, such as a donor, volunteer, board member, client, or member of the public.
Over the past year, more than 1 million people visited GreatNonprofits to read and write these reviews.
Reviewed organizations will receive increased exposure to donors and volunteers and increased visibility in their communities and the media. The process also allows potential volunteers and donors to easily find the best organizations to work with.
“So many wonderful nonprofit organizations are working to fight injustices around the world, said Perla Ni, CEO of GreatNonprofits. “This campaign is an opportunity to shine a spotlight on their important work, and raise support for their causes.
Any Social Justice nonprofit receiving ten or more new positive reviews by July 31, 2011 will be recognized on the GreatNonprofits Top-Rated Social Justice Nonprofits List.
