CharitySense: Access Detailed Data on US Non-Profits for Informed Decisions

CharitySense is an incredibly useful plugin that provides a comprehensive database of information on US-based non-profit organizations. With easy access to data such as their mission, key personnel, governance structure, ratings, and financial information, this plugin proves to be a valuable tool for anyone interested in supporting or learning more about charities.

Using CharitySense is simple and straightforward. To begin, you need to identify the charity you're interested in. This could be a charity you've heard about or one that you're considering supporting. Once you have your chosen organization, you'll need its EIN (Employer Identification Number) to access detailed information about it. The EIN is a unique number assigned to each charity by the IRS, and you can usually find it on the charity's website or through a quick online search.

Once you've obtained the EIN, you can easily request information about the charity from the plugin. For instance, you can say, "Tell me about the charity with EIN 123456789." This prompt will provide you with a wealth of detailed insights into the organization, including its mission, key personnel, governance structure, ratings, and financial data. This enables you to make informed decisions about which charities you want to support or learn more about.

Moreover, if you want to compare different charities or explore a list of charities based on certain criteria, CharitySense has got you covered. Simply ask the plugin to provide a list of charities, and you can specify various parameters like the number of charities you want to see, their assets or liabilities, ratings, and more. For example, you might say, "Show me the top 10 highest rated charities." This feature allows you to conduct in-depth research and find charities that align with your personal preferences and values.
