Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. In the aftermath of the truly horrific 100-year flood event in Texas, as the floodwaters ebb and the long haul of recovery begins, the local and national community is stepping up to help. Many want to know how they can support victims, and others will want to find new ways to deliver the short and long-term services needed.
This episode is a "refresh" of EO Radio Show episode 9. It addresses common legal questions that come up for charitable relief efforts for victims in the immediate aftermath of disasters. The focus of this episode is on distinguishing between charitable disaster relief for a charitable class, as compared to private gifts to a specific individual. We also cover what donors and founders need to know when supporting a new relief effort for a charitable class as a new charity or a new foundation.
Next week, host Cynthia Rowland will "refresh" another episode with more detailed information about how to apply for tax-exempt status on an expedited basis for a new charity formed in the aftermath of a specific disaster.
