Domain names ending in .Charity available starting today

Domain names ending in the .Charity top level domain name are now available in general availability.

Top level domain name company Donuts faced a multi-year battle for rights to operate the domain name.  The Independent Objector filed a community objection against Donuts’ and Famous Four Media’s applications for the TLD. A panelist agreed with the Independent Objector when it came to Donuts’ application, but allowed Famous Four Media’s application to go forward because of a Public Interest Commitment it submitted.

Needless to say, Donuts was rather upset. It challenged the decision with an Independent Review Panel and won. That kicked it back to a panel to rehear the original objection and it took another year for the panel to find in Donuts favor. All told it was a 4-5 year delay.
