The Association of the Bar of the City of New York's
Committee on Legal Issues Pertaining to Animals will present an evening
forum entitled "How to Form and Fund a New York Not-for-Profit
Corporation"
Description: This evening's program will offer practical
advice on the steps to be taken to form a New York not-for-profit
corporation; to obtain tax-exempt status for such charitable
corporation; and to fulfill Federal and New York State registration,
reporting and tax filing requirements. The differences between public
charities and private foundations will be discussed, as well as the
problems faced by certain small charities that are funded primarily by
their founders. The last hour of the program will provide information
about fund raising for the charity once it is created. Donor
cultivation, special events planning and implementation of a planned
giving program will be about the fund raising methods discussed. There
will be a special emphasis on fund raising ideas for charities that
benefit animals.
