Looking Beyond the 501 (c) (3): What Funders Need to Know About the New IRS Process For Obtaining Nonprofit Status

Please join us for a conversation with the Charitable Activities Section at the Oregon Attorney General's Office
Thursday, December 13, 2018
DESCRIPTION:
In late 2014, the IRS streamlined the process for organizations to obtain 501c3 tax-exempt status, implementing the 1023 EZ application process. Four years later, we now have data on how those changes have affected the sector.
 
Many new organizations are receiving IRS 501(c)(3) status without having learned the basics about charities’ legal responsibilities. The responsibility for ensuring charitable funds go to qualified entities is now shifting to the States and to funders. Department of Justice Charitable Activities representatives will discuss this new landscape, what funders should know, and how funders can help ensure their funds are going to qualified entities.
