Re: [ga] FUNDING


Sigh.  Another red herring.

The IRS does not require any minimimum contribution or donation level for a 
501(c)(3) tax-exempt status.

The criteria related to tax-exempt status are varied and somewhat complex, 
but donations, per se, are not particularly relevant.

This assessment is based on:

         a) 8 years running a 501(c)(3) that charges fees; though it gets 
donations, the percentage has never been an issue; and

         b) A quick review of Nolo Press' The California Nonprofit 
Corporation Handbook, by Anthony Mancuso.
