NTEE

The National Taxonomy of Exempt Entities (NTEE) classification system is used by the IRS and NCCS to categorize nonprofit organizations. Most such organizations are 501(c)(3)'s, as Wikimedia DC is, but perhaps not all of them. This is a list of examples to compare to, and to get a sense of the formal/organizational "industry" we're part of.
