According to PIR, which is itself a nonprofit, the expansion of the .org family 
of domains marks a step forward in its strategic plan to fulfil its commitment to
serving the public interest online and empowering mission-driven organisations.

 Jon Nevett, CEO of Public Interest Registry commented:

> “Options are good. We want mission-driven organisations to have more tools in 
> their toolboxes to connect with each of their specific audiences with the important
> work they’re doing to power meaningful progress in their communities.
>  
> “If your organisation aims to do good, you’re a fit for the .org family of domains—
> from corporations launching a corporate social responsibility initiative, to mission-
> driven social enterprises, to non-profit organisations large and small. Our .org
> family of domains is for everyone working to make a positive impact in the world.”

The .org family of domains can be purchased through accredited registrars listed
on PIR’s website. .giving, which PIR says can be used to create a dedicated space
for specific fundraising efforts by social enterprises, corporations with a commitment
to CSR, and nonprofits of all sizes—will launch in 2022 and be available to all 
in 2023.
