List Only

where can I find a list of nonprofit organizations for New York State?\?

I wanted to donate money to a nonprofit organization and wanting to find a list of nonprofit organizations to choose from. How do I do this?

1. Type in Publication 78 on any search engine. That will take you to the IRS's listings of ALL 501(c)3 NonProfit charities. If you are interested in a particular area (animal rescue, heart association, things like that), do a search under that name, and add New York to the search parameters.
2. A very good site for the kind of Info that you are looking for... http://new-york.uscity.net/Charity/ Thanks.
3. Charities should be registered with the Secretary of State's office. They will have a listing. When donating to a charity, evaluate what their overhead is. If they only give 3% to their cause, you can presume that it is a front for the owner to line his pocket. A good organization will have an overhead less than 60%.
4. http://www.volunteermatch.org/bymsa/m5600/c/org1.html this site has all the Non-Profit Organizations in NY, which total up to 1932, so check em out, you can also apply as volunteer by going to thier site here.
5. Old fashioned but it works...try your local library reference section
