Enable users to find GuideStar data.

Other Information:

Our reach is far and wide. Our database is broad and deep. We encourage nonprofits to share information about their organizations openly and completely. Any nonprofit in our database can update its report with information about its mission, programs, leaders, goals, accomplishments, and needs—for free. We combine the information that nonprofits supply with data from several other sources. Subscriptions and licensing fees for our services provide important financial support for our work—in 2006, they made up 64 percent of our total revenue. The remaining 36 percent came from generous foundations and donors—we're a public charity, too. We have an ambitious plan for long-term sustainability, but we are also committed to providing nonprofit information to a broad audience at no cost to those users. It's part of our public service, one that we pledge to continue.
