Every brief shows the work behind the recommendation.
Karma Nonprofit Research scores thousands of 501(c)(3)s against your cause, geography, and grant size, then returns a ranked shortlist. Every pick gets a compliance check, an activity score, and a mission match, with the receipts attached.
Compliance, activity, mission.
All scored, all sourced.
No "trust me, this is a good one." Every recommendation comes with the inputs that produced it, so you can defend the gift to a co-trustee or a spouse.
Every pick passes the IRS check
Karma verifies 501(c)(3) status against IRS Pub 78, pulls the most recent 990, and checks state charity registries before any nonprofit shows up in your brief.
See who's actually still doing the work
Each recommendation comes with recent public mentions, a freshness score, and a last-active date. Quiet nonprofits don't slip onto your shortlist by accident.
