FUNDRAISING COMPLIANCE REVIEW

Are you compliant?

Fundraising activities of nonprofit organizations are regulated by state law. Many states have charitable solicitation laws that require registration with the state before the nonprofit or professional fundraisers solicit any donations. We provide a comprehensive charitable solicitation registration review for small to medium size nonprofit organizations that fundraise in more than one state to help them understand their obligations under state law.
