More and more we are hearing that videos have become an important forum to communicate information in a quick and meaningful fashion.  So with today’s blog we are proud to launch our Building Trust Video Series, which features an interview with Jean Knaack, Executive Director of Road Runners Club of America.   

This video series is intended to provide the donating public with a chance to view comments from various charity leaders who believe in the importance of trustworthiness.  Among other things, topics covered in the taped interviews will discuss the charity’s mission, how it defines success, the value of being a BBB Accredited Charity Seal participant, and what measures they take to help ensure their organization’s commitment to strengthening donor trust.   We hope you will enjoy the chance to see how charities are recognizing the importance of accountability in carrying out their good works.  We appreciate the time they have taken to spend with us and are proud to have Jean Knaack in our first video.

We are always working with charities to publish or update reports for donors. Visit Give.org or local BBBs to check out any charity before giving. Our recently evaluated charities include:

• Animal Legal Defense Fund
• Association of Jewish Family and Children's Agencies
• B'nai B'rith International
• National Park Foundation

Finally, remember to let us know by going to https://give.org/ask-us-about-a-charity1/ if you are interested in seeing a report on a charity not on the list and we will do our best to produce one.
