Event Details

The IRS has just completed the first substantial redesign of the Form 990, the annual information return nonprofits must file with the IRS, since the form was introduced in 1979. The revised form significantly
changes the reporting requirements for many nonprofit organizations.
Now, the IRS wants to know in more detail how your organization sets
executive compensation and how much it is paying its executives; how it handles potential conflicts of interest; and whether it has a record
retention policy, independent directors and a whistleblower policy.
And there is more.


This seminar is designed to walk you through all the new requirements
so you will be prepared when you have to file t he revised form. You
will be hearing from attorneys and CPA’s, including individuals who
served on a taxpayer advisory group that provided feedback to the
IRS while it was redesigning the form.


This seminar is designed for executive directors, CFO’s, administrative
officers, and finance p rofessionals, as well as in-house counsel for not - or-profit organizations.

United Way brings communities together to focus on the most important needs in the community -- building partnerships, forging consensus and leveraging resources to make a measurable difference. If it requires fundraising, going to Congress, or just getting people to work together, that's what we do. We look at root causes - it's not enough to feed a hungry family, we look to change the conditions that led to hunger in the first place.
