There are some charities that were conferred the Charity Transparency Awards (CTA) previously but did not receive recognition in the next year. Why is this so?
Some of the reasons could be due to:
Not meeting the eligibility criteria
Did not participate in the CTA. For previous CTA, charities are automatically assessed for the award once they have met the eligibility criteria. Since CTA 2022, the format was changed to encourage charities to take greater ownership of their learning. Charities are required to ‘opt-in’ by submitting a participation form indicating their areas of disclosures before they are being assessed.
Falling below the benchmark. Based on the charities which have participated, charities are benchmarked based on their scores. Only the top performing participating charities are conferred the award.
