127 Worldwide Accredited by National Financial Accountability Organization

RALEIGH, NC – The ECFA (Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability) announced today the accreditation of 127 Worldwide of Raleigh, NC.

ECFA accreditation is based on the ECFA Seven Standards of Responsible Stewardship™, including financial accountability, transparency, sound board governance and ethical fundraising.
    
127 Worldwide joins a growing number of Christ-centered churches and ministries across America, supported by over 14.6 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.
