Charitable Giving

Listening to NPR this morning as they asked for donations, made me think about Foundations and charitable giving. How do you find out what charities are "real"?

In GALILEO you can go to
Business and Economics (tab)
...Georgia Corporate Search
"lists all organizations or individuals licensed for business by the Georgia Secretary of State. Information provided for each license holder includes: address, chief executive officer, secretary, and chief financial officer"

I typed in Foundation and 7680 records came up.

Fascinating information!


The password for home use of GALILEO is available to the citizens of Georgia from your librarian. Some resources noted in this BLOG are only available to NMTC patrons.
