Tax Code Section 501 provides that nonprofit organizations organized for charitable purposes may be exempt from federal income taxes. 501(c)(3) organization is a corporation and any community chest, fund, or foundation organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, testing for public safety, and so one. The entity must have a limited purpose, must not have the authority to engage in activities other than exempt purposes, and must not be engaged in political activites.
Many donors require proof of a section 501(c)(3) status before making contributions. These contributions are deductible when computing income and estate taxes.
