CharityWatch Analysts perform an in-depth analysis of charities' audited financial statements and IRS tax filings, and often review other documents such as state filings, annual reports, and fundraising contracts during their evaluations. Below are select notes that CharityWatch believes may be of interest to donors.

According to the All Hands and Hearts Smart Response (AHAH) audit of August 31, 2024 (Note 10, Donated Goods and Services), AHAH received in-kind donations in fiscal 2024 on which it placed a total value of $946,748. Of this amount, $475,013 was attributed to "Materials and equipment."

[Note: CharityWatch generally excludes the value of in-kind (non-cash) donations of goods and services from its calculations of Program % and Cost to Raise $100. More information on how grades are calculated and the treatment of in-kind donations can be found on the Our Process page.]
