https://www.guidestar.org/ is a great source for info on any nonprofit except the very smallest. You can download tax returns and see who is getting paid and how much, how much is spent on fundraising, etc. I have seen some where all the highest paid executives just happen to have the same last name. (!)Yeah, those commercials do work. Shriners and St Jude will get some money. I see a lot of expensive commercials so I will have to check the details first. Probably some T2T and Wounded Warrior type places as well.
To download returns you have to register as a Guidestar user. I'm sure I've been registered at least five years and have seen no negatives from this. No spam, no solicitations for contributions, etc.
One of the biggest things our community foundation does is to administer scholarships, so you might start there. There is a variety, including for specific schools, local area schools, trade schools, etc. I think most are limited to kids from the local area.I would very much like to do a scholarship. Any advice on where to look for info on this?
If you have a specific school in mind, you can also call and ask to talk to the Development Director. aka chief fund-raiser. That will definitely get you on a mailing list, though.
