I have made a research, but I wasn't able to find similar pages on the web. I suggest scheduling a fundraising-related announcement to distribute to media (only to "team" email address) in September, and to reiterate in November. Moving the deadline to early September 2018.

Nothing similar has been published in 2018, so I wonder if the article was a one off which has not been replicated.

Searched further. This is a BoingBoing specific project running since 2013. The list is published by Cory Doctorow, BoingBoing co-founder and EFF member, who asks for suggestions to other BoingBoing forum members by adding a comment to his forum post (and then in some cases publishes a post on BoingBoing blog like in 2017). There isn't anything similar on the entire Internet, so keeping a ticket open for something we cannot achieve seems overkill. I have changed the date to the end of November, when is probably the best time to send a message to cory@boingboing.net.

I have sent a message to Cory Doctorow to have TDF included in his list and searched for similar lists on the internet. All available lists are for charities based in the US (and most of them are for charities based in a specific US state) or in UK (just one list).

I have sent an email to all available end of the year giving guides, even if they were only for US based charities. None of them was including charities based in other areas, and as this is the situation since this task was created I do not think it makes any sense to keep it open. Over the years I have sent emails to Cory Doctorow, the author of the first guide, and to all other guides available, but my messages have been completely ignored. So, I am going to close the task as it represents just a waste of time.
