SOI Tax Stats - 2006 Private Foundations Microdata Files

Return to the Tax Stats home page

Microdata files for all Forms 990-PF sampled for the annual SOI studies of private foundations.

The data are contained in ASCII flat files, Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, and Adobe Acrobat PDF. Documentation to assist with the files is included. (Free Adobe Acrobat reader and Microsoft Excel viewer software is available for download, if needed.)

The SOI sample includes returns filed by private foundations, exempt under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3), and section 4947(a)(1) nonexempt charitable trusts. The sample of private foundations is stratified based on both the size of fair market value of total assets and the type of organization (either a private foundation or an IRC section 4947(a)(1) nonexempt charitable trust). All returns filed by nonexempt charitable trusts, regardless of asset size, are selected for inclusion in the study. Microdata records contain most financial information from Forms 990-PF, as well as weights (to estimate the population), for each organization.
