Classifications: Non-profit & NAICS/SIC + NTEE
[edit source]Non-Profit Registration & Classification
[edit source]Noisebridge is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational membership organization, incorporated in the state of California. Scans of our complete 501(c)(3) application are available for download. Our bylaws are also freely accessible to all.
EIN
[edit source]Noisebridge's EIN (wp:FEIN / Tax ID=TID) is 26-3507741. (chunked for memory: 26 - 350 7741)
Classification (NAICS / SIC)
[edit source]When interfacing with other organizations, we're often asked about our non-profit status and industry or type of non profit.
Based on MakerNexus's analysis and other consultation of NAICS (North American Industry Classification System), Noisebridge is likely best characterized with:
- NAICS 611699 - All Other Miscellaneous Schools and Instruction: This broad category can include various educational activities that Noisebridge provides outside of traditional computer training, and SIC 8299 (Schools and Educational Services, NEC).
As a potential alternative, NAICS Code 611610 - Fine Arts Schools code could be considered if Noisebridge offered classes focused on digital art, electronic art, and other forms of artistic expression.
NTEE
[edit source]It could be worth modelling ourselves after:
- HackerDojo's NTEE classification, B90, though B99 looks more broad or appropriate, or after
- Dallas Makerspace's, Category: Science and Technology Research Institutes, Services / Computer Science (NTEE).
- ICANN notes on NTEE
