FINCA Ranks in Top 1 Percent of Best Run Charities
Earns 4-Star Rating for Seventh Consecutive Year

March 31, 2009
We are delighted to announce that, for the seventh consecutive year, FINCA has earned a coveted 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, the premier American charity evaluator, "for its ability to efficiently manage and grow its finances."

Our congratulatory letter from Charity Navigator reads: "Only 1% of the charities we rate have received at least 7 consecutive 4-star evaluations, indicating that FINCA International consistently executes its mission in a fiscally responsible way, and outperforms most other charities in America. This "exceptional" designation from Charity Navigator differentiates FINCA International from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust." To read the full review, please visit Charity Navigator.

FINCA International President and CEO Rupert Scofield said, "Our ability to achieve this recognition, year after year, is the result of the hard work and dedication of our boards, management teams, and the more than 7,000 FINCA employees across the globe who give 110% to maintain the high standards and transparency levels expected by our clients, donors and investors."

Charity Navigator has been profiled in The New York Times, the Chronicle of Philanthropy and on National Public Radio for its celebrated method of applying data-driven analysis to the charitable sector. It is estimated that Charity Navigator influenced over $10 billion in charitable gifts in 2008.

We could not have done it without your continuing generosity! Thank you for your support and for helping FINCA remain one of the top-ranked charities in America.
