Does the Significance Foundation have a list of approved charities?
No, the Significance Foundation does not attempt to maintain a list of approved charities. However, a highly comprehensive, searchable list of domestic charitable, religious and educational organizations approved by the IRS as Section 501(c)(3) public charities, as defined by Section 509(a), can be accessed through GuideStar.org, although some charities that have tax exemption under a “group determination letter” are not included. In addition, governmental units, churches, and many charitable affiliated units of churches are not included in the Guidestar listings but generally are eligible recipients if their public charity status can be confirmed. If you have a particular cause in mind but are unsure of exactly which charity will serve your intent, your Significance Foundation Donor-relations specialist can assist you.
