A
—Program efficiency40% of the ratingNo expense breakdown in filings
Measures how much of every dollar spent actually reaches programs, plus what it costs to raise $100 of donations.

Not scored for Civil Service Employees Association— this filing type doesn't report it, and the rating simply skips it (never counts it against the organization). See the exact thresholds →
