   Another reason for the overall success of the Shriners is that people know the money we raise will actually go to the hospitals. To substantiate that claim, the December 2002 issue of Money Magazine in their article, “Make Your Donations Count,” rated the Shriners Hospitals for Children as the most efficient health charity in the United States. Of the money we collect on behalf of these hospitals, about 95 % goes directly to the hospitals. The excellent reputation that Shriners Hospitals is achieving throughout America can – and does – have a positive impact on donations, patient referrals and public awareness. http://www.hendersonvilleshriners.org
