Church CO+OP Accredited by National Financial Accountability Organization

HOUSTON, TX – The ECFA (Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability) announced today the accreditation of Church CO+OP of Houston, TX.

ECFA accreditation is based on the ECFA Seven Standards of Responsible Stewardship™, including financial accountability, transparency, sound board governance and ethical fundraising.
    
Church CO+OP joins a growing number of Christ-centered churches and ministries across America, supported by over 27 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 accredit a ministry committed to provide tools and resources for those who serve churches, schools, and nonprofit organizations,” said Michael Martin, president of ECFA.

Founded in 1988, Church CO+OP (http://churchco-op.org) connects churches, schools, and nonprofits organizations with reputable vendors and resources to save time and money on products, services, and education.
