Bill Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation
Why isn't this organization rated?
We had previously evaluated this organization, but have since determined that this charity's atypical business model can not be accurately captured in our current rating methodology. Our removal of The Clinton Foundation from our site is neither a condemnation nor an endorsement of this charity. We reserve the right to reinstate a rating for The Clinton Foundation as soon as we identify a rating methodology that appropriately captures its business model.
What does it mean that this organization isn’t rated?
It simply means that the organization doesn't meet our criteria. A lack of a rating does not indicate a positive or negative assessment by Charity Navigator.

and our "friend" FactCheck.org: Where Does Clinton Foundation Money Go?
It will be interesting to follow this story.
That “Factcheck” article spent a lot of talking about how the Clinton “charity” spends so much of its income on “programs”, but says very little about how the “charity” actually spends its money. If, as Factcheck claims, the Clinton foundation has actually spent money on training people to become farmers in Africa, there should be a cost breakdown to support that claim. Ditto for other supposed charitable works. Otherwise, and especially since these are the Clintons, I don’t believe that the foundation is anything other than a money laundering scheme, with maybe a token amount going to actual philanthropic work.
