2018 Bronze Seal on GuideStar

The Hungry Hearts Foundation was recently recognized for our transparency with a 2018 Bronze Seal on our GuideStar Nonprofit Profile!

​GuideStar is the world’s largest source of information on nonprofit organizations. More than 8 million visitors per year and a network of 200+ partners use GuideStar data to grow support for nonprofits.

In order to get the 2018 Bronze Seal, YOUR ORGANIZATION shared important information with the public using our profile on www.guidestar.org. Now our community members and potential donorscan find out more about our mission and programs.
