Hello rbitt-ga,
Thank you for your question.
The best online resource for doing research on non-profit
organizations in the U.S. is GuideStar.
The GuideStar Website has the nation's largest and most
comprehensive source of data on U.S. nonprofit organizations. It
includes a searchable database of more than 850,000 nonprofit
organizations in the United States where you will find information
about the operations and finances of nonprofit organizations. This
service is free.

GuideStar Searchable Database
http://www.guidestar.org/search/index.jsp
You may search by Nonprofit Name, Keywords, City, State, Zip,
Category, Nonprofit Type, Income Range, EIN, or NTEE Code.
Note: If you refine your search criteria, you can obtain not only the
number of organizations found, but the name of each one. In addition
by clicking on their name, you can see their financial information,
such as income and assets, contact information and activities.
I did a search for non-profits in California and 109,623 organizations
were found but to see details of each organization I had to refine my
search.
Now I searched for non-profits in Santa Monica and California and 724
Organizations were found. By clicking on the name of the organization,
for example, LIBERTY HILL FOUNDATION, the following details are shown.
