Obtaining Tax Exempt Status
-
Booster clubs are not legal components of a school district. Each organization must have its own tax identification number, own bank account, and is directly responsible for compliance with IRS and state reporting and disclosure requirements. Organizations who provide receipts to donors as a “charitable tax deductible donation” must be officially approved by IRS as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. It is the organization’s responsibility to be both knowledgeable and compliant with all state and federal laws. Booster and aren't groups are encouraged to contact the Internal Revenue Service and the Franchise Tax Board in order to obtain a tax-exempt status for their organization.
-
The booster club shall not use the district's tax-exempt status and identification number. It shall be responsible for its own tax status, accounting, internal controls, financial reporting, retention of records, and other operations.
