Rebecca Moll Freed to Present "Representing Non-Profit & Charitable Organizations - The Basics and Beyond" Program for NJICLE

There are thousands of non-profit organizations in New Jersey. They include social services agencies, charitable organizations, foundations, advocacy groups, hospitals, schools and professional associations. From the Girl Scouts to the Salvation Army, they perform a wide variety of work and employ thousands of people. Non-profits are an important part of our economy and our lives would be very different without them.

Proper formation and maintenance of tax-exempt status (501(c) - from 3 to 6 and everything in between), as well as compliance with a host of state and federal laws, are crucial for the survival of these groups and organizations.
