Triskelions of Northern California is proud to announce that we have earned the Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid (formerly GuideStar). As the highest level of recognition offered by the world’s largest source of nonprofit information, this distinction reflects our unwavering commitment to accountability, financial integrity, and mission-driven impact.

​

What is the Candid Platinum Seal?

​

Candid is the gold standard for nonprofit evaluation in the United States. While many organizations provide basic data, the Platinum Seal is reserved for those who go above and beyond by sharing comprehensive insights into their internal operations.

​

By achieving this status, we provide donors, grantmakers, and the public with a "clear window" into how we utilize funds to further our charitable missions. To reach this benchmark, Triskelions of Northern California has publicly disclosed:

​

• Financial Health: Full IRS 990 filings and transparent audit reports.

• Strategy & Metrics: Specific goals and quantitative measurements of our success.

• Governance: Clear leadership structures and oversight policies.

• Impact: Detailed program results and progress toward our mission.

 

Why This Matters for Our Community

​

Earning the Platinum Seal isn’t just about a badge on our website; it’s about building a foundation of trust with those who make our work possible. This recognition enhances our mission in four key ways:

​

1. Validated Trust: Current and potential donors can give with confidence, knowing their contributions are managed with the highest level of integrity.

2. Increased Visibility: Our high ranking on Candid’s database makes it easier for philanthropists and foundations to discover and fund our initiatives.

3. Corporate Partnerships: Many corporations and matching-gift programs require a high Candid rating before approving grants. This seal opens doors to new corporate sponsorships.

4. Operational Excellence: The process of earning this seal ensures we are constantly measuring our impact in alleviating hunger and providing clean water in the Philippines.
