GuideStar Platinum for The Family History Guide

We just received the Platinum rating on GuideStar, which is the highest rating that GuideStar gives. 

As you probably know, The Family History Guide Association is a non-profit charitable organization. Shortly after we achieved that status, over a year ago, we became aware of the GuideStar organization. They act as an online directory for non-profit organizations, providing information about the purpose, personnel, and characteristics of each company. You can see the GuideStar page for The Family History Guide here: https://www.guidestar.org/profile/82-1081685

You can see our link to our GuideStar page at the bottom of any screen in The Family history Guide, in the lower-right corner.

Below is a portion of the communication that GuideStar sent to us recently. We are proud to serve the world as a first-class website for assisting in family history learning and research!

 

“Congratulations on achieving the 2018 Platinum Seal of Transparency on GuideStar!
