How many community groups and nonprofits are listed across the Palm Springs metro?
Two right now, in Palm Springs and Palm Desert. The list grows as businesses are recommended, checked and added.
What makes a business inclusive on Inclusivity.org?
Every listing shows why it is here, with a source you can check: the owner's own statement, a public listing such as a chamber directory, or a recognized certification. Some are owned by the communities they serve and some are allies who welcome everyone. We never list someone's identity without a source.
How can I get involved?
Most groups welcome volunteers and post events on their own calendars. Following the ones you care about is the easiest way to hear what they need.
Are donations to these groups tax deductible?
Only gifts to qualifying charities are, and not every nonprofit or community group has that status. The IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search lets you check.
Is it free to be listed?
Yes. A basic listing is free, and owners can claim and update theirs at any time. Featured and Enhanced listings get more room on the page, and being listed never depends on them.
How do I suggest a community group or nonprofit that is missing?
Use Recommend a business at the bottom of this page. We research every suggestion, and nothing goes live until it has been checked.
Know a community group or nonprofit we're missing?
Tell us who they are and we'll do the research. Nothing goes live until we've checked it, and we never list someone's identity without a source.
