Non-Profit Workshop: Changes to the 990

Non-Profit Workshop: Changes to the 990

Join the Chamber's Non-Profit Group for a workshop on the "Changes to the 990 and new IRS-Required Overhead Calculations ". 

 

The huge growth in the nonprofit sector in recent years has influenced Congress and the IRS to greatly modify the reporting requirements for nonprofit organizations. Government has determined that the new Form 990 series of tax forms is the strongest method to communicate to all sectors of society what is transpiring in aggregate and specific accomplishments of respective organizations. Come and discover the requirements, how these adjustments will affect your return, how to follow properly and more. It’s also a great opportunity to share success stories and reconnect with your fellow non-profit partners.
