Efficiency Ratios are included to show how each charity allocated its spending in the given year. It should be noted that each area (programs,
administration, fundraising) is significantly impacted by salaries and benefits of the personnel working in the area. The very low administration
expense of Charity Guild is reflective of our not using paid staff.

Unrestricted net assets are included as an indicator of overall wealth of each charity. Change in UNA was included in an attempt to show how
each charity has fared in this economic cllimate. It should be noted that some charities submitted more recent 990's than others, so this may not
be as accurate for comparison was we would like.
