The nonprofit sector’s digital land trust

- U.S. nonprofits seeking an outside digital-health check
- Worth noticing
- The planned scan limits itself to public pages and DNS checks; it explicitly rules out port scans, hidden-path probes, and login attempts.
Field notes
The domain-finding process draws on IRS Form 990 records and additional data sources. The site also links to material on verification and edge cases, correction requests, repair guides, and the Institute’s own results. It says reports will be private and free to nonprofits, while some findings will be public; the first national scan is scheduled for Q4 2026, so the described reporting service is not yet evidenced as operating.
