Nonprofit Details

Overview

The Nonprofit Details product gives you the full profile of any U.S. nonprofit using its EIN (Employer Identification Number). One request returns everything you need to display or evaluate an organization: identity, mission summary, address, cause areas, financials, IRS filing information, and Giving Compass vetting status.

Key Features

Complete Profiles: Name, mission summary, website, and contact address in a single response
Financial Snapshot: Latest reported total revenue, net assets, and filing year from IRS data
Cause Classification: NTEE code, issue area, and mapped UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
Trust Signals: Giving Compass vetting status, IRS ruling date, and a link to the source IRS filing
Impact Context: An AI-generated impact summary describing the organization’s outcomes
Geolocation: Latitude and longitude for mapping and proximity features

How It Works

Every U.S. nonprofit is identified by a unique 9-digit EIN assigned by the IRS. Pass that EIN in the request path and the API returns the organization’s full profile:

GET /nonprofits/details/530196605

The EIN must be exactly 9 digits with no hyphens or spaces. For example, use 530196605, not 53-0196605. Requests with any other format are rejected with a validation error.

Use Cases

Organization Profile Pages

Build rich nonprofit profile pages in your product—mission, location, financials, and donation link—from a single API call.

Due Diligence

Verify an organization’s identity, IRS standing, and financial scale before recommending it to donors or approving a grant.

Search-to-Detail Workflows

Pair with Nonprofit Search: search results return EINs, then fetch full details for the organization a user selects.

Data Enrichment

Enrich your existing donor or grantee records with cause classifications, SDG mappings, and up-to-date financials keyed by EIN.
