Public Interest Registry's Core Mission
PIR is a non-profit organization managing .ORG – the domain which has served the international non-profit community for more than 25 years. Within this community, there is a wide appreciation for PIR’s role as an advocate of safety, security and higher standards for the Internet. PIR oversees nearly 10 million .ORG registrations, many serving the public interest, making it a strong and reliable choice for .NGO domain address management. PIR’s long-standing track record speaks to its core mission to serve the public interest – whether it be through the implementation of anti-abuse policies, the rollout of DNSSEC and more.

We need your support in order to get it right.

PIR has long-stood as an advocate for higher standards for the Internet. Our history with .ORG, the domain which has served the international non-profit community for over 25 years, clearly demonstrates our mission to serve in the public’s best interest.
