Most Efficient Charities in New Mexico
2 nonprofits ranked by Efficiency Score. 1 earn an A grade for excellent financial stewardship.
Below: New Mexico's most efficient nonprofits, ranked by the LakeQuality nonprofit efficiency rubric. The rubric combines program-spending ratio (50%), revenue growth consistency (20%), fund reserves (20%), and CEO compensation ratio (10%).
Efficiency rankings do not necessarily favor large or small organizations — the rubric rewards organizations that allocate resources toward programs, run on stable funding, and pay executives in line with sector norms regardless of scale. Efficiency scores are recomputed each time we ingest new Form 990 filings; small movements year-to-year are normal as filing data updates.
