ABWE Foundation Accredited by National Financial Accountability Organization
HARRISBURG, PA – The Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) announced today the accreditation of ABWE Foundation of Harrisburg, PA.
ECFA accreditation is based on the ECFA Seven Standards of Responsible Stewardship™, including financial accountability, transparency, sound board governance and ethical fund-raising.

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 supporting evangelical ministries whose purposes include the gospel ministries of evangelism,” said Dan Busby, president of ECFA.
