I had the same reservations. Full disclosure would be appreciated.

Does anyone out there know if Charity Advantage is a nonprofit or a
"For
profit" organization?
There is nothing on their website that clearly states what they really
are.
They say some pretty ambiguous things, like:
"We want to thank the following foundations for their continued
support of
nonprofits:
Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
David and Lucile Packard Foundation"
But they really don't say that they received grants from these
foundations.
They also say:
"NP Online Action would not be possible without the following
companies:
Cisco, MicroSoft, Dell, Yhaoo"
But again they do not specifically say that they received grants or
just
purchased/use this technology.
The only thing that is clearly spelled out is the following:
"Commitment by Recipient: One-time program administration fee of $59.
And,
Monthly budget of $35 for website hosting and maintenance. Maintenance
enables your organization to add new web pages and update content on
existing pages any time."
Any comments?
