Nonprofit revenue totals surge amid growing scrutiny after major fraud cases

Hundreds of billions of dollars flowed through U.S. nonprofit organizations in 2024, tax filing data show, as major fraud cases — including in Minnesota — put new focus on how taxpayer-backed funds are overseen.

The figures come from ProPublica’s Nonprofit Explorer and were independently reviewed by Fox News, which confirmed the state-by-state revenue totals.

According to the data, California’s 213,720 nonprofits reported a collective $593.4 billion in revenue, the highest total of any state.
