A Rocha USA Accredited by National Financial Accountability Organization
FREDERICKSBURG, TX – The Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) announced today the accreditation of A Rocha USA of Fredericksburg, TX.
ECFA accreditation is based on the ECFA Seven Standards of Responsible Stewardship™, including financial accountability, transparency, sound board governance and ethical fundraising.
A Rocha USA joins a growing number of Christ-centered churches and ministries across America, supported by over 35 million donors that have earned the right to display the ECFA seal. When an organization is accredited by ECFA, it demonstrates its willingness to follow the model of biblical accountability.
“We are pleased to include in our membership a ministry committed to stewarding God’s creation by facilitating hands–on conservation projects and educational programs in communities across the nation,” said Dan Busby, president of ECFA.
Founded in 2000, A Rocha USA (www.arocha-usa.org) desire to steward God’s creation as an act of worship to the Lord Jesus Christ and in response to the biblical call to tend the garden. They aim specifically to mobilize Christians in this pursuit but work with all people—regardless of faith. A Rocha USA stands as an evangelical witness, proclaiming that God cares about that which He created.
