Thanks to the many fantastic reviews written by our wonderful supporters, the Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) is proud to announce that it is one of only five environmental non-profits in Washington, D.C., to have won the coveted 2012 Top Rated Award from GreatNonprofits. Only 1 percent of eligible nonprofits win this accolade every year, and 2012 was the second year EESI made the cut. GreatNonprofits is currently gathering reviews for the 2013 Top-Rated Award . Reviews are due by October 31, 2013 (to review EESI, please click here ).

These nonprofits achieved Top-Rated status because their clients, donors and volunteers chose to review them and bestow a high rating. There are over 58,000 environmental nonprofits on our site and five of the Top-Rated are based in Washington, D.C.,” said Perla Ni, CEO of GreatNonprofits.
