CBM USA achieves platinum seal of transparency from Candid

The Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid is a prestigious recognition that highlights CBM’s commitment to integrity, accountability, and measurable impact, strengthening trust among donors and partners.

CBM USA has received the Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid (formerly GuideStar)—the highest level of recognition for nonprofit accountability and impact reporting in the United States.

For our institutional partners and donors, this recognition is an assurance that CBM operates with the highest standards of transparency, accountability, and measurable impact.

Why this matters for donors

  • Credibility: For donors who may be newly learning about CBM, the Platinum Seal provides immediate validation of our reliability and governance.
  • Visibility: Many U.S. foundations, corporations, and donor-advised funds rely on Candid to vet nonprofits. Platinum status ensures CBM is visible and stands out in their searches.
  • Efficiency: With Platinum data available on Candid, funders can rely on this verified information in the place of extensive due diligence, saving both time and resources during grant processes.
  • Competitive Edge: Platinum is the top tier of recognition, held by a smaller group of nonprofits. This positions CBM as a leader in transparency and measurable impact and strengthens our case for partnership.

A timely achievement

This recognition comes at a crucial time as CBM USA works to expand its fundraising base and partnerships in the U.S. market. It is a tool we will use strategically in proposals, conversations with donors, and outreach efforts to demonstrate our commitment to accountability and results.

With this Platinum Seal, institutional donors can be confident that every partnership with CBM is backed by the highest standards of nonprofit transparency and effectiveness.
