Frequently Asked Questions

How do I compare nonprofits?

Use the Compare Tool to select 2-3 nonprofits and view side-by-side comparisons of revenue, assets, expenses, and executive compensation — all sourced from IRS Form 990 filings.

What is a financial health score?

The financial health score is a letter grade (A+ to F) based on key financial ratios including working capital, revenue growth, program expense ratio, and asset reserves. It helps you quickly assess an organization's fiscal stability.

Is any tool behind a paywall?

No. All GiveScope tools — compare, benchmark, donation calculator, nearby search, and the sector quiz — are 100% free with no account required.

Where does the data come from?

All financial data comes from publicly available IRS sources: the Business Master File, Form 990 e-file data, and Exempt Organizations data. We update it regularly as new filings become available.
