Follow up on nonprofit budgets

I have had some luck searching nonprofit operating budgets and nonprofit operating budgets via Googlem and also nonprofit foundation operating budget. The H. John Heinz Center for Science posts its operating budget. (The other budget would be likely be a capital budget.) Some organization note that their annual budgets are an approximate amount and provide a pie chart with percentages of the allocations, so one might figure out the general idea of a nonprofit's operating budget that way. Figures available on the Form 990s (available via Guidestar) could help, but these would be actual expenses, not budgeted expenses. I posted a comment to Stephen's posting of yesterday about the Dormitory Authority of New York, which is a public benefit corporation. They provide an annual budgeted amount and what percentage had been spent by the current month.

I hope this is helpful.
