open990 is a free and open source command line tool for generating data extracts from the IRS Form 990 e-file dataset hosted on Amazon Web services. It is developed and maintained by opendata.love, which specializes in IRS Form 990 analysis.
This package draws on an existing package, 990_long, published by Charity Navigator under the MIT License, the terms of which are available here. The package consolidates individual XML-based 990 filings into a single Parquet file, then processes the filings into key value pairs that have been merged with the Nonprofit Open Data Collective's 990 concordance.
David Bruce Borenstein is the Director of Data Science at opendata.love and 990 Consulting, LLC. Formerly of Charity Navigator, he created open-source software to turn IRS Form 990 into spreadsheets. He formed 990 Consulting and its sister site, opendata.love, to increase awareness and access to this remarkable dataset. Prior to Charity Navigator, he worked as a computational biologist at the Broad Institute MIT and Harvard. He holds a Ph.D. in Quantitative and Computational Biology from Princeton University.
