This page details a mechanism to detect which accelerators are non-profits. This is important to the [[U.S. Seed Accelerator Data]] project.
A comprehensive list of nonprofits taken from the [https://www.irs.gov/charities-non-profits/tax-exempt-organization-search-bulk-data-downloads IRS] can be found here:
\bulk\McNair\Projects\Accelerator\Summer 2018\Connor Accelerator Work\Nonprofits in US.xlsx
Warning: this file has 1 million rows
This file should be cross-referenced with the list of accelerators to find which ones are listed--those accelerators are non-profits. We'll need someone good in SQL to do this with a match.
Potential problem:
*The names of listed non-profits will likely be somewhat different than the names of accelerators, because companies often file for tax exemption with different names than they show the public.
