Subject: [Cash-and-caring] Question about fundraising when your division doesn't have a 501(C3) tax letter?<br>
<br>
Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
I am new to this list so sorry if this question has already been asked. I am the vice-president of the National Federation of the Blind Community Service Division among other offices I hold in the<br>
Columbia chapter and the state of Missouri. What I am wanting to<br>
know is how do divisions handle when they don't have a 501(C3) letter when it comes to fundraising. Are their fundraisers that can be done that don't require the division to have a 501(C3) letter?<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
<br>
Dacia<br>
<br>
