Cat Friends Helping Friends Update
Posted by Sophia under Charity
I thought I’d let you guys know where we stand in terms of becoming an
actual charitable organization recognized by the IRS. We have a lot left
to do and some of those things coming up are very expensive. We have
already obtained our incorporation certificate which cost about $75. I am
in the process of applying for a charitable submissions license which
costs $100, our 502(c)(3) fees will be $750 which is our largest expense.
We also have small expenses which certainly chip away at our costs; these
include domain registration, chat rooms for meetings and newsletter
services. All and all we really need about $1000 to truly be in the up and
running as we would like to be. We understand this will take time, but
we’re trying to move it along as quickly as possible with fund raisers for
our operating or administration fund. ML, our chairperson of the fund
raising committee, was kind enough to donate THIS WONDERFUL CAMERA. ML requested all donations from the camera go directly to our operating
costs.
So we’re asking all you kitties out there to buy even just one
raffle tickets to help us realize out dreams. Besides helping our
organization reach its goals, you will have an opportunity to win this
wonderful camera which Amazon lists at $465.99. Please check it out for
all the product details. We want to thank for you all your support so far,
we are a little over half way to all of our goals. We are very anxious to
begin helping the kitties of the blogosphere and with your help we know we
can reach our goals.
~Trish, President
