Posted May 23, 2024
Background & Context
Join us on Tuesday, June 25, 2024 at 3pm ET / 12pm PT for a virtual program.
Participants will learn:
– The different roles of 501(c)(3)s, 501(c)(4)s, unions, and political organizations;
–The federal tax rules affecting how these organizations can work together;
–The legal separations necessary between affiliated organizations, such as funding and fundraising constraints; and
–Permissible joint activities of different types of nonprofits, including election-year activities.
Immediate Problem
Different types of organizations are increasingly collaborating on lobbying, voter engagement, and other advocacy activities, but they need to be aware of the rules governing organizations with different tax-exempt statuses. If you’re interested in supporting these efforts, this workshop will help explain how different types of nonprofit organizations can effectively collaborate while maintaining legal compliance.
