Ask the IRS / congress, this isn’t some arbitrary grouping it’s what charity means in the US.
I do think it’s worth asking that question, but ask it of the people who can do something about it.
- bilbo0s 8mo agoThe people claiming to be making sense of charities are the people who are supposed to be teasing that data out.
- Retric 8mo agoIf you’re making sense of something you need to include everything in that category. It’s perfectly reasonable to create different subdivisions / buckets based your own definitions or NTEE code etc, but all those sub categories combined must add up to the same thing as how charities are defined.
