Since Addison seems to be the first sponsor to want to donate, why not use their donation to file this paperwork? We would not be able to issue a receipt until after it all goes through, but maybe they'd be OK with that. <BR><BR>Any idea how much Addison wanted to give for the year?<BR><BR>

<DIV><FONT size=2>I have looked up the forms that you would need to file. First of all you need to see IRS publication 557 to see what code section your organization would be exempt under. (charitable, member organization, etc) Then there is the process of setting up bylaws, etc. The form that would need to be filed with the IRS is the form 1023. If you look at section XI of that form the minimum user fee to set up the exempt organization is $300. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>You can locate both publication 557 and form 1023 at <A href="http://www.irs.gov/" target=_blank rel=nofollow>www.irs.gov</A> I have attached a copy of those files to this emai. </FONT></DIV>
