Glaucoma Research Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to finding a cure for glaucoma, announced that it has met the Standards for Charity Accountability of the Better Business Bureau (BBB). As a result, GRF has earned the right to feature the BBB Wise Giving Alliance Seal on its website and printed materials.

"At GRF, we believe strongly in organizational transparency," said President and CEO Thomas M. Brunner. "We are proud to display the Better Business Bureau seal to let our donors and the community know we meet these rigorous standards of charity accountability."

The Standards for Charity Accountability were developed to assist donors in making informed giving decisions and to encourage public confidence in nonprofit organizations. To display the seal, an organization must qualify by completing a comprehensive evaluation by the BBB Wise Giving Alliance, the nation's most experienced charity evaluator. GRF's finances, governance, effectiveness, solicitations, and informational materials were all carefully reviewed as part of the evaluation process.

"GRF's historically demonstrated financial prudence, combined with thoughtful governance, has earned recognition from the nation's leading and toughest monitor of non-profit giving," said Brunner. "We want our donors to know, so we are proudly displaying the BBB Wise Giving Alliance seal on the home page of our website."
