FUNDRAISING COMPLIANCE MANAGEMENT

Professional & Thorough

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