    Any reason to report a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose only purpose is to benefit a for-profit business?

    I accepted an invitation to serve on the board of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that a friend had set up.

    After I discovered that the nonprofit does not do any fundraising or activities- it’s just a straw man that helps the friend’s for-profit corporation to make more money- I resigned.

    Is there anyone I could or should report this to?  The entity ought to lose its tax-free status or be shut down.  The IRS or a state charities regulator?

    Thanks.

    How do I start a non profit charity?

    I have this amazing idea that is going to help so many kids, and it’s actually going to work. I planned it all out, and I’m so excited to get it going!! I just don’t know how to actually set up the non profit. 

    I’m going to take $100,000 and put it into some account and have it earn interest and take that money to pay for the charity. I want this charity to go on forever and be something that I can pass down to my children to look after when I am older. 

    Where do I begin?? This is a very broad question, and I realize that, but I don’t know where to begin to start making my idea turn to reality 

    Thanks!

    Why is it such a very, very bad idea to disclose sensitive information about your employer? ?

    To this day, I still have issues accepting the fact they fired me because of me mentioning the name of my company and it’s customer to a social Facebook group consisting of some 45,000 members. This is also the same Facebook group I troll by saying things like I support Hitler and so on. This group also has people believing in lie about me being a paedophile which they may have passed onto to my employer.

    Did you ever have to contact your former supervisor after retirement for any reason?

    Favorite Answer:

    Employer yes--you should sign up on the Benefeds website, and make sure you are registered on the Office Of Personnel Management website and have your paperwork in order. All your questions and correspondence will go through those two main sites, and if you had a TSP account, you'll also need to make sure you are up to date on that website as well. 

    I never HAD to contact my supervisor again, but I did stop in to say hello a couple times. We got along well and it was nice to see them again.

    If you've started a nonprofit and only you and your wife are the only ones running it with no employees ....?

    Favorite Answer:

    Yes.  The IRS recognizes two kinds of TINs (taxpayer ID numbers):   Social security numbers and EINs.  Those are the only two choices.   SSN doesn't work for your entity because it's not an individual person.

    Right from the IRS page for EIN numbers:

    Purpose of an Employer Identification NumberEmployer Identification Numbers are issued for the purpose of tax administration and are not intended for participation in any other activities (e.g., tax lien auction or sales, lotteries, etc.)

    Exempt Organization InformationIf you believe your organization qualifies for tax exempt status (whether or not you have a requirement to apply for a formal ruling), be sure your organization is formed legally before you apply for an EIN. Nearly all organizations exempt under IRC 501(a) are subject to automatic revocation of their tax-exempt status if they fail to file a required annual information return or notice for three consecutive years. When you apply for an EIN, we presume you’re legally formed and the clock starts running on this three-year period.Example: Your organization applies for an EIN in November 2014 and chooses a December accounting period. Your first tax period would end on December 31, 2014, and your first return or notice (if your organization does not meet one of the few exceptions to the annual reporting requirement) would be due May 15, 2015. You would be subject to automatic revocation of your exemption if you fail to file for the three periods that end December 31, 2016 (return/notice due May 15, 2017) or for any consecutive three-year period thereafter.Related TopicsState and Federal Online Business RegistrationOnline EIN: Frequently Asked QuestionsEmployer ID NumbersSystem RequirementsPrivacy Act Statement and Paperwork Reduction Act NoticeBusinesses with Employees
