About This Data
What Is This Data?
Nonprofit Explorer includes summary data for nonprofit tax returns and
full Form 990 documents, in both PDF and digital formats.
The summary data contains information processed by the IRS during the
2012-2019 calendar years; this generally consists of filings for the
2011-2018 fiscal years, but may include older records. This data release
includes only a subset of what can be found in the full Form 990s.
In addition to the raw summary data, we link to PDFs and digital copies
of full Form 990 documents wherever possible. This consists of separate
releases by the IRS of Form 990 documents processed by the agency, which
we update regularly.
We also link to copies of audits nonprofit organizations that spent
$750,000 or more in Federal grant money in a single fiscal year since
2016. These audits are copied from the Federal Audit Clearinghouse.
Which Organizations Are Here?
Every organization that has been recognized as tax exempt by the IRS
has to file Form 990 every year, unless they make less than $200,000
in revenue and have less than $500,000 in assets, in which case they
have to file form 990-EZ. Organizations making less than $50,000
