Charitable Solicitation

On today's episode we will cover Charitable Solicitation Registration! If your nonprofit asks people for donations, you probably need to register with state regulators before you make the ask, and the rules are different in every state. We'll break down what charitable solicitation is, how it differs from your IRS tax-exempt status, what the most common misconceptions are, and what organizations should do to stay compliant with these laws. Today we are thrilled to be joined by our BA Summer Legal intern, Lina Zuluaga.
