Give Lively membership is now open to 501(c)(3) private operating foundations, in addition to public charities.
In December 2023, Give Lively turned directly to public data maintained by the IRS as the source of nonprofit information. This shift has allowed us to expand nonprofit membership from public charities only to private operating foundations as well. It has further helped us to refine membership eligibility according to IRS foundation types. Learn how we've expanded Give Lively membership eligibility for nonprofits and what IRS databases we reference for nonprofit data.
