��Ƶ Tops Wisconsin Nonprofit List

(Madison, WI) -- ��Ƶ Christian Fellowship leads a list of Wisconsin nonprofits compiled by a Texas agency that assembled a state by state nonprofit comparison, measured by total revenue. The revenue figures were taken from GuideStar, a nonprofit monitoring organization.

��Ƶ has been located in Madison, Wisconsin, for 44 of its 72 years, moving to Madison from Chicago in 1969. ��Ƶ’s total revenues in the 2012-2013 fiscal year, were $99,070,000. That total represents income from donations, ��Ƶ Press book sales, conference fees, and other sources.

��Ƶ has a Four Star rating on Charity Navigator, another nonprofit monitoring organization. The Four Star rating recognizes ��Ƶ’s strong fiscal management, low fundraising expenses, and program stability. ��Ƶ’s 2012-2013 Annual Report is online at http://www.intervarsity.org/page/2012-2013-annual-report.

��Ƶ’s National Service Center in Madison serves over 1,600 staff, including field staff who work with 909 ��Ƶ chapters on 590 college and university campuses across the U.S., from the Ivy League to community colleges. ��Ƶ field staff are responsible for raising their own financial support, each staff person relies on a large community of people who support their ministry with prayer, financial gifts, and sometimes as volunteer assistants.

The comparisons were compiled by KerstenDirect, a direct response fundraising and marketing agency serving nonprofit organizations, and presented in a graphic called The United States of Nonprofits. The graphic does not include hospitals, universities, museums, and several other categories of nonprofits. ��Ƶ is also listed in the Chronicle of Philanthropy’s 400 Largest Nonprofits, and Forbes magazine’s 2011 list of 200 largest charities.
