B
—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. The worse of the two measures sets the letter (85%+ to programs is an A; under $15 to raise $100 is an A), averaged over the three most recent filings. Not scored for Vermont Farm-to-school Inc— this filing type doesn't report it, and the rating simply skips it (never counts it against the organization). See the exact thresholds →
BFinancial health25% of the rating2 mo reserves · -4% margin
