The Texas Ramp Project is proud to share that we have once again earned the 2026 Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid — the highest level of recognition for nonprofit accountability and openness.
For our partners across Texas, this distinction is more than a badge. It reflects our ongoing commitment to transparency in how we operate, how we steward resources, and how we deliver mission impact in communities throughout the state.
Why Transparency Matters to the Access Alliance
The TRP is built on collaboration – referral agencies, community organizations, businesses, volunteers, donors, and foundations working together to ensure safe access for Texans with mobility challenges.
Transparency is the foundation of that trust.
Earning the Platinum Seal affirms that we openly share:
- Our mission and program outcomes
- Financial information and governance practices
- Measurable impact across Texas
- Organizational strategy and growth
When partners refer a client, when a volunteer gives their time, and when a donor makes a contribution, there is a shared expectation that resources are used responsibly and effectively. This recognition confirms that commitment.
Every Donation Supports the Mission Across Texas
Whether funding comes from an individual donor in a small community, a corporate partner in a major metro area, or a civic organization serving locally, contributions power a statewide mission.
Because we operate through a distributed volunteer network, financial support does not stay in one city – it advances safe access for Texans in urban neighborhoods, rural communities, and everywhere in between.
Transparency ensures our partners can see how their support translates into tangible, lasting impact.
About Candid
Candid is a leading nonprofit information resource formed through the merger of GuideStar and Foundation Center. Through its Seals of Transparency, Candid helps nonprofits demonstrate accountability while enabling donors and funders to make informed decisions.
Achieving the Platinum Seal places Texas Ramp Project among organizations that voluntarily provide the highest level of detailed information about their work and impact.
Our Promise to Our Partners
To our Access Alliance partners, donors, volunteers, and referring agencies: thank you.
We do not take your trust lightly. We remain committed to clear communication, responsible stewardship, and measurable impact as we continue expanding safe home access across Texas.
Together, through collaboration and transparency, we are building more than ramps – we are building confidence, independence, and community.
