In our annual evaluation by the highly respected Charity Navigator we received its highest four-star rating 20 years in a row as an organization you can trust. This puts us in the top 1% of the charities evaluated and assures that you can give and participate with confidence.

Currently, GuideStar gives Kids Alive a Gold Star. Kids Alive has also complied with all standards set by the Better Business Bureau.
