I am a member of the Waller Rotary Club. We are a new club. We would like to set up a 501 C 3. I have set up a number of non-profits. If you would consider sending me your by-laws and original form 1023 filing to use as a template, it would make my job easier.

Happy to help Alan! I have sent our Form 1023 to your email address. Let me know if you do not receive it.
Hope to see you at our Gala – it’s going to be great!
Sharon Joines
Sharon,
I am in the same boat as Alan. The Heber Valley Rotary Club is setting up a 501c3. Would you be willing to share your 1023 so that I can reference. I’d like to learn from success. Thank you for your help.

I am a PDG in District 7230 and we have several clubs that would like to file for 501c3 status. Could you send me a copy of your 1023 filing to use as an example? Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
Yours In Rotary Service.

Hi Sharon:
You seem to be a very popular person among Rotary Clubs trying to set up their own 501c3 status. The Rotary Club of Burney, California would like to request a copy of your 1023 also.

Hi Sharon,
I am the Treasury of the Rotaract Club in Mobile, AL and our club is setting up a 501c3 as well – I’ve already filled out our Form 1023, but would greatly appreciate seeing yours for reference before I actually file it. Would you mind sending me this info?

Hi Sharon,
I am the Treasurer of a Rotary Club in Fairfield, CA. We have been discussing setting up a separate 501(c)(3) for our fund raising and charitable giving activities, I’m curious whether you have obtained your 501(c)(3) status for your club or if you also sent up a separate entity?

Thanks!
