Results for Children: Annual report 2011

2011 was a year of many achievements, large and small, for the 85 million children benefiting from Save the Children’s programs. We credit these many successes to our generous partners and supporters who help children grow healthier, learn more and become better prepared to realize their dreams. Our heartfelt thanks go to each of you who share our vision for children.

In this issue of Results for Children, we have posted an overview of our finances for fiscal year 2011. We are proud to report that Save the Children continues to have an exceptional spending record, with more than 89 percent of funds going directly into programs. For the 10th year in a row, Charity Navigator, an organization that rates the financial health of more than 5,000 U.S. charities, gave Save the Children its highest four-star rating! And Save the Children was one of three nonprofit organizations profiled in America’s Greatest Brands for 2011. We hope you are just as pleased with these distinctions as we are.
