Post your nonprofit annual economic statement

If your nonprofit organization received more than $100,000 from the City, you must make certain information publicly available.

What to do

1. Check if you need to do this

If your nonprofit organization received more than $100,000 in annual funding from the City, you must make an annual economic statement publicly available. 

Learn more about the requirements and the new ordinance.

2. Post information on your website

You must provide the following information on your public website:

  1. Name of the CEO or employee who has daily managerial responsibilities
  2. Names of officers and directors, and all other boards on which they serve (except for homeowners association boards)  
  3. Total budget and expenditures, and a program-by-program description of all monies expended or budgeted during calendar or fiscal year
  4. Letter from the IRS showing your valid nonprofit status
  5. Most recent federal tax return filed under Section 990
  6. Verification of current valid registration with the State of California’s Registry of Charitable Trusts
  7. Audited financial statements, if applicable

You should post the above information on a single webpage. The webpage may include:

  • Links to other webpages
  • Downloadable documents     

We have put together a template for you to use as an option.

Tip: If you have a page on ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer, you can search for your organization and include a link to that page on your nonprofit website. This may satisfy some of the requirements, like item #3 and 5. 

3. Fill out a form

Once you finish posting the required information on your website, you must fill out a form to let us know you have done it. 

The form should take about 5 minutes to complete.
