2083.


The California Attorney General's Office maintains an online list of
all registered charities in the state, which can be searched here:


http://justice.hdcdojnet.state.ca.us/charitysr/default.asp


Entering Oakland in the "City" text box, yields the following:


"There are 2083 Matching Records"


followed by the actual list of the non-profit organizations  (listed
25 to a page).  Many of the organizations include a link, "On-Line
Financial Records Are Available", in case you want some additional
information about the groups.

The main search page also includes a link:

By clicking on the text, you'll be taken to additional information
about the list itself, should you so desire.
