Best Day Foundation Honored As 2016 Top-Rated Nonprofit

Press Release – SANTA CRUZ, CA – August 2016 – Best Day Foundation announced today that it has been honored with a prestigious 2016 Top-Rated Award by GreatNonprofits, the leading provider of user reviews about nonprofit organizations.

“We are excited to be named a Top-Rated 2016 Nonprofit,” says Brooks Lambert, founder of the Best Day Foundation. We are proud of our accomplishments this year, including the additions of Florida and San Diego chapters, as well as may successful events throughout our 7 chapters. The Top-Rated Nonprofit award was based on the large number of positive reviews that Best Day Foundation received – reviews written by volunteers, donors and clients. People posted their personal experience with the nonprofit.”

For example, one person wrote, “Seeing the genuine smile on my son’s face! I was prepared for his anxieties to get the best of him, and for him to be scared and overwhelmed, but all of the staff and volunteers were fantastic at being encouraging, making our son feel comfortable, and SAFE. I was so impressed with how comfortable I felt with him being in the ocean with strangers. I appreciated the security measures taken, with having multiple people to one participant while in the water. Our son felt so genuinely happy and confident that day. In general, he’s a very pensive, and serious kind of fella, so to see him radiating so much pure joy, and excitement made us happy to tears for him! Thank you for such a wonderful day!”

While the Top-Rated Awards run through the end of October, Best Day Foundation was part of the inaugural group to qualify for the year. In addition, we’ll been added to GreatNonprofits #GivingTuesday Guide—an interactive guide to top nonprofits throughout the years. Look for this near the holidays.
