501(c)(3) Nonprofits and Dartmouth Organizations: Best Practices
Presented by Alumni Relations

The majority of our Dartmouth classes, clubs, and groups are 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organizations. As such, these organizations must file tax returns and are prohibited from engaging in activities that generate “private benefit,” constitute political intervention, and generate a substantial amount of non-mission related business or income among others. In this session, Brittany Raway, senior associate at Alston & Bird, will share more information about 501(c)3 nonprofits, compliance, what organizations can and cannot pursue, and answer questions from class, club, and group volunteers.
