    Resources for Nonprofits

     

    Use these resources to learn how we assess your organization, how you can bolster the rating, and how to stay informed about methodological changes and key dates.

     

    Note: We only rate 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations that have filed three IRS Forms 990 (990EZ, 990PF, or 990N not eligible) or have earned an Impact & Results beacon. All nonprofit organizations listed on the IRS Business Master File are automatically listed.

    How We Rate Nonprofits

    Nonprofits are evaluated across four assessment areas referred to as beacons: Impact & Results, Accountability & Finance, Leadership & Adaptability, and Culture & Community.
