Tax-Exempt Applications

 

Obtaining federal tax-exempt status is critical in forming a nonprofit organization. Many of the benefits of becoming a nonprofit stem from your 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, such as the tax-deductibility of donations, access to grant funding, and income and property tax exemptions. Completing IRS Form 1023 can be daunting, but we are with you every step of the way.

Nonprofit Wellness Auditing

 

Grantors want to know that your nonprofit has a proven track record of raising and managing funds before you are awarded a grant. Our in-depth audit identifies areas of weakness that may hamper your nonprofit’s attempts to secure future grant funding.
