Comments of the National Council of Nonprofits on .org price cap removal

[Ayden Férdeline]

A very strong comment has been submitted by the National Council of Nonprofits, which represents 25,000 organizations, opposing the removal of the .org price cap:

Each one-dollar hike in costs per domain would divert more than $10 million from nonprofit missions for the enrichment of the monopoly. By anyone's estimate, this money would be better spent delivering an additional 1,600,000 meals by Meals on Wheels to seniors to help maintain their health, independence and quality of life. Or $10 million could enable nonprofits to provide vision screenings for every two- and three-year-olds in California. Or pay for one million middle school students to attend performances of "Hamilton" or "To Kill a Mockingbird". Nonprofits should not need to choose between paying for a domain name and helping people.

Best wishes,
