In going through a number of 990 IRS forms, which are required to be filed
by non-profits in the US, I have found that many groups, many who are
considered "astroturf groups" -- ie a non-profit who is directly funded by a
large corporation to look like they care about the issues from the
perspective of a minority, etc. --- are not itemizing their donations or
identifying the corporate funding --- assuming that the investigative
reporting got the corporate-non-profit ties correctly. 

Does anyone know if non-profits have to identify their funding sources? Is
there are  lower limits on the money to be required to be reports - say over
$50,000? 

And besides guidestar, are there other places to find funding information?
