Mission Statement

Be Better; serves student-athletes (16-26) across Michigan to support their mental well-being and save lives. Launched in 2020 to honor the legacy of University of Michigan swimmer Ian Miskelley, Be Better; bridges care gaps as a first and steady point of contact for students and families navigating the complex mental health system. We provide expert consultations, recommend the best care path for each athlete, expedite personalized referrals, and maintain communication with families throughout the journey - all at no cost to participants. Some consultations point to depression or mental illness, while others surface situational stressors we work to alleviate together. Ian's life was shorter than it should have been, but his battle inspired a better model of athlete-centered care. Be Better; has worked with over 200 student-athletes to build guided care plans rooted in urgency, empathy, and personal communication, ensuring nobody competes against mental health alone.

CharityAI™ rates charities from 0 to 100 using public filings (IRS Form 990 and the equivalent registries outside the US) together with the information the charity itself provides on DonationX. Ratings are recalculated every quarter, without human bias, and shown as stars.

Four pillars

Financial strength30%

Program expense ratio, fundraising efficiency, operating reserves, liabilities and revenue diversification, compared with similar organizations.

Reliability20%

Standing with the registry, filing history, verification and how complete the profile is.

Effectiveness25%

How much goes to programs and how consistently the organization delivers them.

Impact25%

The outcomes the charity reports on DonationX: people served, cost per service and results.

Stars

★★★★★ 80–100 ★★★★☆ 60–79 ★★★☆☆ 40–59 ★★☆☆☆ 20–39 ★☆☆☆☆ 1–19

A pillar with no data counts as zero. Without impact metrics the score is capped at 59 (three stars): only the charity can supply that data.
The coverage grade (A to D) says how much filing data the score rests on; NONE means there is not enough to rate.
An organization that is not in good standing with its registry (for example a revoked tax exemption) is shown as Not rated.
"Compared with peers" places the charity's key ratios against organizations of the same country, sector and size.
