501(c)3

While a non-profit organization can be established by incorporating, did you know that the entity is NOT automatically tax-exempt upon creation with the state? 

Tax-exemption can usually be achieved only through applying for and receiving IRS approval, 501(c)3.  One of the primary benefits of having tax-exemption under the Internal Revenue Code is the ability to accept contributions and donations that are tax-deductible to the donor.  An additional benefit includes eligibility for grant funding.  

Granting Favor Consultants has a 100% proven track record when applying for 501(c)3 tax-exemption.  Every non-profit organization assisted has been APPROVED!!!  

If you've ever seen Form 1023, you will understand just how daunting a task completing this form can become.

We prepare Form 1023 and ALL pertinent documentation. You do NOTHING!!!  All we require is that you provide us with the necessary documents and/or information to make the process as smooth as possible.  THAT'S IT!!!  How convenient is that.  

We also offer training sessions for those non-profit organizations either applying for or already having secured 501(c)3 tax-exemption. These training sessions cover how to obtain/maintain this status and the various ways to properly utilize this status. 

If you are needing 501(c)3 tax-exemption for your current or future non-profit organization, please fill out the 501(c) Request Form.

Contact us for more information.

F.L.O.S.S. contracted with Granting Favor Consultants to complete our 501 c 3 application in Aug 2015. Having worked with Ms. Barnes in the past, we already had an appreciation of her knowledge of this process as well as her success rate in obtaining 501(c)3 status approvals for clients. She was professional and timely throughout the entire process. She walked us through each phase of the process and kept us updated from start to finish. Because of the work she did for F.L.O.S.S., we have referred others needing 501(c)3 exemption to Granting Favor Consultants. We received our approval letter on the first submission.
