Charity Navigator has awarded JDRF its highest rating, 4-stars and praised the foundation for "outperforming the majority of nonprofits in America with respect to fiscal responsibility. This 'exceptional' designation... differentiates JDRF from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust."

JDRF was awarded an efficiency rating of 92 out of 100 in Forbes Magazine's most recent annual charity ranking. The accompanying article called JDRF "...a tightly run organization that puts almost every dollar spent to work curing disease..."

"The foundation typically outperforms, in lobbying and fundraising, nearly every other interest group built around a particular disease."

For the ninth year in a row, JDRF was ranked the only national diabetes organization to earn an "A" grade by the American Institute of Philanthropy.
