This periodically checks the IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search for a given EIN. If it's found, you'll receive an email with rudamentary information and future checks will be skipped. If it runs into an error multiple times it will send you an email and skip checks until you mark the error as fixed.

After you apply for a non-profit status, there is about a one- to six-month wait to hear back if you are approved. They notify you by sending a letter in the mail. However, they often update their website before you receive that letter.

• Set the EIN environment variable to the EIN you want to check. You can use either form XX-XXXXXXX or XXXXXXXXX.
• If you want to mark an error as fixed, remove the nonProfitChecker.skipReason blob from your Blob storage. Your search will run on the next cron run.
