Celebrating National Nonprofit Day!

Every year on August 17th, we celebrate National Nonprofit Day. This day recognizes the missions and contributions of nonprofit organizations and the people who bring their missions to life. From dedicated staff and tireless volunteers to generous donors and community advocates, this day is about recognizing you: the heart of the nonprofit world. 

Here at The Bee Foundation For Brain Aneurysm Prevention, we are proud to be a part of this powerful nonprofit community. Today, we want to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone who supports our mission to prevent brain aneurysms and save lives. To our staff, Board of Directors, Scientific Advisory Board, and Ambassadors, thank you for your passion, expertise, and commitment. To our donors and sponsors, thank you for fueling our work and making every breakthrough possible. To Arnold & Porter, thank you for helping us advocate for life-saving brain aneurysm legislation. And to the brain aneurysm community, thank you for bravely sharing your stories and joining us in the fight to create a world where brain aneurysms are detected early and treated before they rupture. 

Our belief has always been clear: that we can live in a world where brain aneurysms are found prior to rupture so that lives are saved and the devastation they cause eliminated. To achieve this, we not only work relentlessly but also strive to remain transparent and accountable to the people who make our mission possible. 

Transparency builds trust, and trust strengthens our relationships with donors, partners, and the community. We firmly believe that by being open about our finances and operations, we are fostering a culture of accountability, trust, and transparency. That is why we are proud to be recognized by two of the most well respected nonprofit evaluators:

• Guidestar: The Bee Foundation has earned a Platinum Seal of Transparency, their highest rating!
• Charity Navigator: We have received an impressive 3 out of 4 stars (82%)!

Guidestar and Charity Navigator are resources for information and ratings on non-profit organizations, like TBF. They include details of our mission, programs, impact, and operations. Programs like Guidestar and Charity Navigator help ensure donors and businesses that their contributions are making a meaningful difference.

As a nonprofit organization, we rely on donations and fundraising efforts to empower our work. Every gift helps us get closer to a world without brain aneurysm tragedies. This National Nonprofit Day, we invite you to celebrate with us by making a donation, spreading awareness, or sharing your story. Your support is not just appreciated, it is life saving.
