Non-profit Discount
From DreamHost
DreamHost offers a FREE hosting plan to non-profit, charitable organizations registered in the United States.
This discount applies to a single hosting plan per non-profit, hosted within only one account, for US-based 501(c)(3) organizations.
Domain registrations (other than any included with the plan) are not eligible for any discounts.

Proving Non-Profit Status
Whether you are a new customer or a current customer, in order to prove your non-profit status we need to receive one crucial piece of documentation. This is an official United States IRS letter indicating tax exempt non-profit status under the appropriate sections of the tax code. This is often called a 501(c)(3) determination letter.
A 501(c)(3) determination letter is the only documentation that we will accept. If you are a non-profit organization and do not have a determination letter, regardless of the reason, you will be denied free hosting.
Once the above information has been received we'll configure your account appropriately and you'll be happily hosting your non-profit selves, forever!
