2007 Operating Expenses   

Episcopal Relief & Development uses your financial gifts in the most effective ways possible to serve and support suffering people worldwide.

In 2007, Episcopal Relief & Development spent 86% on program versus 5% on administration and 9% on fundraising. Because of the support we receive from the Domestic and Foreign Missionary Society in the form of contributed services as well as our own investment income, 92% of every donor dollar goes directly to programs.

In addition to maintaining the highest standards for internal accountability, we are involved in multi-agency efforts to improve practices and reporting within the relief and development community.

Episcopal Relief & Development is an independent, non-profit organization and your contributions are tax deductible under U.S. tax regulations. Episcopal Relief & Development is exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

We are a member of InterAction, the largest alliance of U.S. based international development and humanitarian non-governmental organizations. (Link: http://www.interaction.org/)

We adhere to the guidelines of the Association of Fundraising Professionals’ Donor Bill of Rights.

Episcopal Relief & Development meets all 20 standards for the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB)
Charity Accountability and is a Seal Holder.
