Even if you haven't uploaded information, GuideStar has pulled your organization's basic data from your publicly accessible IRS Form 990 to create your own, unique profile on guidestar.org. Join us for our webinar to find out how you can update your profile and give your organization the potential to increase its funding through major foundations, corporate giving portals, and individual donors.
