Arizona News – Health First Foundation has earned the Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid (GuideStar) and a 90 “give with confidence” score from Charity Navigator, two places donors and grant-makers look for trusted charity assessments.
“Health First values integrity, impact, excellence, and accountability. These outside evaluations underline our commitment to those values,” said president and CEO Sandra Kowalski. “We are dedicated to ensuring that Health First donors and partners have confidence in us and our work to improve health and well-being in northern Arizona.”
