Most non-profits, especially the ones that are always asking, usually have a lot of funds.
Before I give, I go to guidestar, hit free preview(they try to trick you into a paying membership), download last few years of 1040's, and see if everything looks copacetic. I look at who is making the most money. Their is usually one person making a very good living. California non-profits are much easier to scrutinize than Deleware non-profits.

- rpgmaker 11y agoI believe in internet's archive mission even if I don't use the site that often but I use wikipedia too much, I can't justify not donating to them when they need it.
- greglindahl 11y agoFWIW the archive has a lot of 990s archived at [1]. We love Wikipedia, why not donate to both? :-) [1] https://archive.org/details/IRS990 https://archive.org/details/IRS990
