Non-Profit Organizations

This list of Non-Profit Organizations that serve Nevada County's citizens will surely grow as we locate more local groups with Websites.

Inclusion on this list does not imply any endorsement of the group's activities by the County of Nevada. We have attempted to limit the list to service and educational organizations, and not include those groups whose activities are primarily political. (Eligibility for IRS 501(c)3 status is a usable criteria, but not all eligible organizations have applied for that status.)

If you know of an organization that should be on this list, or if you feel that a listing should be removed, please click the Contact Us button at the right to send a message to the Webmaster.
