Tax-Exempt Public Organizations and Private Foundations

Course Number: JRM 5662 Credits: 2

In this course, we will explore the nonprofit and private foundation sector. There are close to 2 million tax exempt organizations in the US. These organizations include some of the largest charities, hospitals and universities, as well as small private foundations and community organizations in the US. We will look at the sector by going through the life cycle of a nonprofit, from organization through its ending, and study both state nonprofit corporation law and federal tax law.
