MemberAugust 8, 2026 at 1:11 pm in reply to: How do I verify the legal status of individual organizations or nonprofits?I find myself lucky to stumble on this thread and even more, the comment of Sara. I have also been looking for how to verify nonprofits. I have used all the suggestions made here, and they are all gold.
Meanwhile, I stumbled on two API tools that offer an automated way of verifying nonprofits. The one of interest to me is the Nonprofit Check Plus API because of its affordability, and I would need a second opinion.
This Nonprofit Check Plus API simplifies nonprofit verification by enabling one to check nonprofit status and relevant compliance information programmatically.
@Sara.A.Peterson With your expert knowledge, can you help give it a second look for me to see if it is something I should use?

MemberAugust 5, 2026 at 1:30 pm in reply to: Inconsistent IRS Guidance on Conflicts of InterestThis is an important distinction that many nonprofit leaders may overlook, especially when relying on standard IRS guidance for governance policies. Organizations should view the IRS sample conflict of interest policy as a starting point while ensuring their policies address broader statutory requirements and sector-specific risks. It would be valuable to hear how other nonprofit professionals have adapted their conflict of interest frameworks to address this difference in practice.

Most parts of the executive order are pretty cool. I don’t think we will have any issue with that from our end.
