Greg McRay was recently interviewed on blogtalkradio by Chris Curtis of WebWise Business. The topic was starting a nonprofit and applying for 501(c)(3) status. Click to listen!
So, what is a 501c3?
Fast Facts!!
First of all, it's not a 5013c or a 503c or any of the hosts of other mistaken identities that it gets called. A 501(c)(3) organization is simply a nonprofit organization (usually incorporated) that has applied for and obtained recognition of tax exemption by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
What types of organizations qualify?
In order for the IRS to recognize an organization as being qualified for 501(c)(3) status, it must satisfy the IRS's general definition of being organized for charitable purposes. "Charity" is broadly defined to include the following organizational purposes: religious, educational, charitable (benevolence), scientific, literary, testing for public safety, fostering of national or international amateur sports, or prevention of cruelty to animals and children. Quite a list!
