We all have an inclination for helping others. Whether it is an animal rescue, abused women's sanctuary, or a feed-the-children effort, that desire to do good calls us to act. The notion of starting a not-for-profit organization is commendable--but, how do you go about it? Don't let that question stop you from making a difference!

​

Experience & know-how...

 

Starting a not-for-profit organization is an inspiring way to give back to the community and help those in need. Before you embark on this journey, it is important to realize all the steps involved in this process before taking your first step.

The talented staff at TBFoster has the experience and “know how” to guide you through the maze of obtaining a 501(c) exempt status.

​

We'll guide you

 

One of the first steps in this process is completing your Charitable Registration [501(c)] application. This document puts you in good standing with each state in which you solicit donations. If you only intend to ask for funds from individuals, corporations, foundations or entities in Texas, you only need to register in Texas. However, with today’s social media and such sites as Fund Me as well as other money-collecting sites throughout the country, you might wish to consider registering in more than one state.

 

Failure to file can lead to fines, civil suits, and revocation of the future right to solicit funds.

​

We'll get it done RIGHT

 

At TBFoster, we prepare all forms necessary to register and renew your organization.

 

We set-up registered agents, finalize documentation, and correspond with the state. We manage all aspects of the registration so you don’t have to.

 

Outsource your Charitable Registration tasks to TBFoster. We understand the  federal and state compliance laws, deadline dates, and procedures. Our accountants ensure each filing is accurate and correct.

 

We save you time so you can devote your time on other tasks. We save you money because you avoid reinstatement fees for improperly-completed forms or failure to file.
