The Search 990s Screen is used to search for IRS Forms 990 and 990-PF recently filed by private foundations and public charities in our database. The Grantmaker-Specific Search Grants Screen is used to search for records of recently awarded grants specific to a particular grantmaker.
You can link between search screens by clicking on the appropriate tab at the top of the page. For example, if you are searching with the Search Grants Screen and wish to conduct a grantmaker search, click the Search Grantmakers tab.
The Search Grantmakers, Search Companies, Search Grants, and Grantmaker-Specific Search Grants screens have three major parts: the Search Fields and Index Links; the Index Pane; and the Sort Control. The Search 990s Screen has Search Fields only.
