Other groups on the top five list were: Focus on the Family, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, Campus Crusade for Christ and Samaritan's Purse.

The 2004 Donor Approval Award Poll surveyed more than 630 contributors to Christian organizations on February. Campbell Research has been conducting such polls since 1990.
