What this checks — and what it does not

Every verdict covers four things: IRS recognition and subsection, deductibility per Publication 78 (including group rulings), revocation history reconciled against reinstatements, and filing recency from the Form 990 e-file index and 990-N e-Postcards.

Delaware charitable registration is not checked here. Registering with the IRS and registering to solicit donations in a state are different legal requirements, and most states require the latter. This tool evaluates federal IRS status only. For Delaware's charity regulator, use the official directory maintained by the National Association of State Charity Officials. We also do not evaluate finances, governance or programme quality.
