We are happy to share with you that our Change the Game Academy partner Smile Foundation has received GuideStar India – NGO Transparency Award (Platinum Winner 2018) for adopting comprehensive transparency, accountability and good governance procedures with an exemplary level of public disclosure.
Smile Foundation is our partner for executing the Change the Game Academy programme in India.
GuideStar India is India’s largest and most reliable NGO information repository. It has India's largest, fully searchable database of reliable and comparable information on over 8,000 NGOs. More than 800 of these organisations have undergone varying levels of due diligence forming India's largest pool of certified NGOs. GuideStar India is transforming how Indian NGOs report and share information and is changing the way the people perceive, interact and engage with NGOs.
Smile Foundation owes this recognition to their four-tier audit and evaluation mechanism that ensures impact of investment and complete transparency and accountability in utilization of funds. This mechanism reviews programmes and projects, internal operations, compliance of statutory norms and conducts an external evaluation for the impact and outcome of various development programmes.
Change the Game Academy is very proud of Smile for this achievement and congratulates all the staff of Smile Foundation.
