    Try this.

    (There may be others that I don't know about...)

    Find and check a charity using Candid's GuideStar. Look up 501(c)(3) status, search 990s, create nonprofit organizations lists, and verify nonprofit information.

          Charities

          Also, try your secretary of state's office or your state's department of charities.

            You should be able to obtain that information direct from your local authority.

              As Davc said, go to the nonprofit organization. The instructions to the 990 describe how they are required to make the information available. Even though it is public info, some states aren't set up to be distributing the info. It would probably be quicker to get it directly from the charity. The two websites listed are also quite useful.
