Charitable Nonprofit Organizations in Philadelphia: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 13:09, 18 May 2018

This Wikidelphia resource page concerns charitable nonprofit organizations in Philadelphia. There are around 30,000 nonprofit organizations (NPOs) in the Philadelphia area, of which around 5,000 are charitable. Many of these charitable NPOs are listed on Wikidelphia, and the number of these entries will keep growing. Charitable NPOs are to be distinguished from other types, such as the advocacy organization, about which Wikidelphia is also always adding entries. It should be noted that some charitable NPOs do advocacy too.
