Following the evaluation, the charities listed below chose to apply for the BBB Wise Giving Alliance National Charity Seal. To use the seal logo on its website and in printed materials, a charity pays a fee and signs a license agreement.
Participation in the seal program is completely voluntary, and the Alliance's process for reviewing and publishing its charity evaluations is the same for seal participants and non-participants alike. There is no charge to charities for an evaluation by the BBB Wise Giving Alliance, and the resulting report is freely accessible to the public on the give.org website.
The BBB Wise Giving Alliance is committed to protecting the integrity of the charity seal. Seal holder organizations will be monitored for adherence to the program's requirements, and national charities that no longer qualify for participation will be required to cease display of the seal.
