Impetus for obtaining 501(c)(3) status - davidf - 05-16-2013 Our organization meets the focus areas of local grants such as http://www.avistafoundation.com/. Once we obtain 501[c](3) status, applying for such grants will allow us to expand to new areas. Today I was looking at my company's policy for matching gifts. They will match up to $200, which is not much, but it is something. Unfortunately, they will only do this for 501[c](3) registered organizations. We are about half-way towards raising the amount needed for our application fee. Tell your friends about our group, and ask them to donate $20! We only need 20 people to donate that much. |
