Efficiency Ranking · New York

Most Efficient Charities in New York

50 nonprofits ranked by Efficiency Score. 12 earn an A grade for excellent financial stewardship.

Below: New York's most efficient nonprofits, ranked by the NonprofitTruth nonprofit efficiency rubric. The rubric combines financial health / operating reserves (40%), revenue-growth consistency (35%), and officer compensation relative to revenue (25%).

Efficiency rankings do not necessarily favor large or small organizations — the rubric rewards organizations that hold healthy reserves, run on stable funding, and pay officers 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.
