501(c)3!

We are incredibly pleased to announce that as of October 5th, 2008 the IRS determined that we are "exempt from Federal income tax under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code." Hooray!

Special thanks to go MoveSmart.org board member Jay Readey, who helped navigate us through the tricky waters of tax exemption, and the Community Economic Development Law Project, who connected us to Jay in the first place.

IRS Application

MoveSmart.org, which is currently under the fiscal sponsorship of the Chicago Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, submitted our application for 501(c)3 status earlier this week. As a public charity, we believe in being fully transparent about our finances and legal status.
