How ratings work →Reasons to look carefully (2)
These structural observations are drawn from public data and are worth considering before a donation. They are not allegations of wrongdoing, and they don’t affect the charity’s letter grade.

- Reserves high for operating sizeReserves cover ~345 months of expenses on $39K revenue — very high for an operating charity this size
Each signal is a data-driven observation, not a judgement. They fire automatically from the figures filed with Charities Services. A charity can address any of these by filing fuller disclosure or updating its officer register.
