Maybe tax exempt, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're a tax-deductible 501(c)(3) organization. I could not find their EIN anywhere -- to check on the IRS data base. And that's one of the core qualifiers for inclusion in this list. Maybe you can check that out further for me?

Fidelity Investments Charitable Gift Fund : 11-0303001 : Boston MA : fidelitycharitable.org Donor Advised Funds

There are reasons some non-profit organizations accepting bitcoin may not be found on this list:
  • They may choose not to seek IRS registration;
  • Their application may have been denied, or be currently processing, or be approved already but not yet posted on this IRS resource; or,
  • They may have tax-deductible status under another non-profit entity (umbrella).

There can be a significant tax advantage in donating bitcoin to these charities.  Read more about it in the topic Avoid U.S. Taxes on Bitcoin. Give to Charity.  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/avoid-us-taxes-on-bitcoin-give-to-charity-627860
