What does your organization’s public profile say about the work you do? Are you telling the story of impact that you want to be telling? Every nonprofit organization in our country has a public profile on www.Guidestar.org. If you file a 990 tax return, it is posted there, available to anyone with a free log in. Since 2016, Guidestar has allowed organizations to build much more into their profile. Amazon Smile, Network for Good, and many others pull information from Guidestar to inform their donors. Other donors do their research about causes on Guidestar and use the “Donate Now” feature to send money directly to their chosen organizations. Guidestar lets us provide additional information about programs, values, financials, board members and other leaders, and more. Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum Transparency ratings are awarded as more information is disclosed. Come learn more about how to build out your organization’s public profile.
