For the fourth year in a row, Cure Alzheimer’s Fund has received a 4-star rating – the highest possible – from watchdog organization Charity Navigator. Charity Navigator rates over 8,000 nonprofits on many aspects of their accountability, transparency and fiscal responsibility.

“Receiving four out of a possible four stars indicates that your organization adheres to good governance and other best practices that minimize the chance of unethical activities and consistently executes its mission in a fiscally responsible way,” says Charity Navigator’s founder and chairman John Dugan. “This ‘exceptional’ designation from Charity Navigator differentiates Cure Alzheimer’s Fund from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust.”

Very few nonprofits have received a 4-star rating for so many consecutive years. Charity Navigator reports that only 8% of the organizations they rate achieve this goal.

The Cure Alzheimer’s Fund board is committed to covering administrative expenses so that all donations go directly to research, to complete transparency in financial and research reporting and to management of a lean operation that maximizes results and minimizes process. This is the kind of exceptional leadership that is needed to stop Alzheimer’s disease.
