SAS Ai, Inc. HONORED AS 2012 TOP-RATED NONPROFIT New GreatNonprofits.org Award is Based on Positive Online Reviews
Of the 1386 Top-Rated Nonprofits, SAS Ai, Inc. is 17th overall.
SAS Ai, Inc. Corporate Headquarters, Cantonment, Florida, December 4, 2012 – SAS Ai, Inc. announced today that it has been honored with a prestigious 2012 Top-Rated Award by GreatNonprofits, the leading provider of user reviews about nonprofit organizations. “We are excited to be named a Top-Rated 2012 Nonprofit,” says Atty. Romeo J Somera, President and CEO of SAS Ai, Inc.. "We are proud of our accomplishments this year, including our active participation in the SAS centennial celebrations accented by our information booth, a community picnic and a community ball, the crown for the Tagudin town fiesta queen, in disbursing the emergency funds collected for the victims of typhoon Peping, and in the graduation of our first high school seniors."
The Top-Rated Nonprofit award was based on the large number of positive reviews that SAS Ai received – reviews written by volunteers, donors and clients. People posted their personal experience with the nonprofit. For example, one person wrote, “SAS Ai, Inc. is by far the best organization to run a scholarship program. They practice transparency in their business transactions. SAS Ai has integrity. Since their inception they have never stopped helping our bright kids who come from poor families get a good high school education at SAS. I am a graduate of St Augustine School and I know it is the best private school in the province of Ilocos Sur. SAS Ai provides these kids a rare opportunity to get a high school education. For these reasons I support what SAS Ai is doing wholeheartedly.” Being on the Top-Rated List comes at an important time of the year, as donors look for causes to support during the holiday season.
"We are gratified by SAS Ai, Inc. for its work,” said Perla Ni, CEO of GreatNonprofits, "They deserve to be discovered by more donors and volunteers who are looking for a great nonprofit to support." Being on the Top-Rated list gives donors and volunteers more confidence that this is a credible organization. The reviews by volunteers, clients and other donors show the on-the-ground results of this nonprofit. This award is a form of recognition by the community.
