Organizations Filed Purposes:
To provide, at greatly reduced rates (low bono) or for free (pro bono), excellent legal and legal education services to nonprofit organizations and their stakeholders (i.e., founders, directors, members and donors) through our charitable legal aid and educational programming.
Providing educational services. Code 611430. Charitable Allies provides educational training to help clients understand and comply with the complex tax-exempt organization laws and sources of liability for nonprofits and their stakeholders. We often partner with other nonprofit service providers or conveners (such as community foundations, professional associations, and insurance providers) to present continuing education and professional development events on topics such as changes or developments in the law, individual liability, and labor-employment policies that affect the daily operations of every nonprofit. We also regularly contribute articles and other materials to publications directed at the nonprofit sector.
Providing charitable legal aid representation. Code 541110. Many nonprofit organizations are unable to afford excellent, experienced nonprofit legal services. Charitable Allies provides these services at greatly reduced (low bono) rates generally, and for free (pro bono) when the case/matter is in specific furtherance of the public interest and related to core issues of governance, tax-exemption and board liability. Our clients range the nonprofit spectrum, from entities working in the human services space to churches, from community centers to social service agencies, and from membership organization to social welfare entities, among many others. We assist with a wide variety of legal needs such as litigation, regulatory investigations, accreditation audits, tax exemption and governance.
Fiscal sponsorship. Code 813219. Charitable Allies provides fiscal sponsorship for a select few clients, most of whom are awaiting recognition of tax exemption or who operate a short-term and clearly-defined charitable program. The fiscal sponsorships are provided under an agreement with the client, and they are of limited duration.
