Better context for thoughtful giving
DonorAPI.com turns a historical charity collection into complete, readable profiles and a practical research library.
Make a large collection readable
DonorAPI.com organizes a supplied historical charity dataset into individual profiles, thematic browse pages, and practical research guides. The aim is to make the record easier to explore without hiding its definitions, age, or missing information. Every one of the 8,408 source rows has its own complete profile.
The organization is in the details
Browse by 11 categories, 37 subcategories, 53 location codes, three expense-based size bands, numeric score bands, or organization name. Each route leads to the same EIN-specific profile. Every profile presents the mission, classifications, three scores, financial fields, leadership observations, and all 23 original source values.
A clear boundary around the evidence
The source was collected in May 2019 and mostly uses rating details from 2017. The site does not portray it as a current ratings feed, invent official donation destinations, or silently fill absent legal-status fields. It is an independent presentation, not an official Charity Navigator service.
Research, not a transaction platform
Despite the domain’s data-oriented name, the published site is a static reference directory. It does not offer authenticated API access, process gifts, manage private donor records, or operate a CRM. The Donor API guide describes the actual resources, while the software and CRM pages explain related concepts.
Read the source notes
Definitions are preserved in the field dictionary. The quality review identifies duplicate names, missing values, and numeric observations. The source page documents attribution, historical scope, presentation rules, and the metadata’s unknown license status.
Donor Fieldnotes
The editorial library offers ten detailed guides on charity research, score interpretation, financial context, identity, giving verification, and data-system design. Articles link to relevant profiles and reference pages while distinguishing the supplied historical record from outside educational resources.
