We are proud to announce The Women’s Fund of East Tennessee earned a 2020 Gold Seal of Transparency from GuideStar, the world’s largest database of nonprofit organizations in the United States. Less than five percent of non-profits registered with GuideStar are recognized with a Gold Seal, the leading symbol of non-profit transparency and accountability.
The Women’s Fund is dedicated to providing current and potential donors with accurate and in-depth knowledge about the ways in we advance our vision and mission with all donations we receive. Receiving the Gold Star means we have published qualitative information about our goals, strategies and vision.

- Verification of registration with the IRS
