Currently our greatest need is to obtain our 501(c)(3) tax exempt status. Until we are recognizaed as a Non-Profit organization by the I.R.S. and the state of Indiana, we will not except solicitations, meaning we will not except donations under our organizations name. To obtain our 501(c)(3) tax exempt status we must complete I.R.S. form 1023 and submit it along with $750.00 before January 2cd of 2010, as of January 3rd of 2010 the price will raise to $850.00. We need to find a way to obtain the $750.00 in order to complete the form 1023, and send it to the I.R.S.
We have recently submitted our 1023 application to the I.R.S. and are nervously awaiting their ruling on our status as a 501c(3) organization.
