Page 5 - Part VI - Questions 1a and 1b - Providing Goods/Services
to Individuals/Organizations
It is important, when answering this question, to make it clear how
providing goods, services or funds contributes to the accomplishment
of your non-profit organization's exempt purpose. How are your
operations, or the goods, etc. themselves, distinguishable from what
is available commercially?

Page 5 - Part VI - Question 2 - Limitations
Charitable organizations may limit their services to individuals who
are members of a "charitable class." This term includes persons who
are aged, ill, handicapped, unemployed, or otherwise distressed,
children and, of course, the poor, indigent, and underprivileged.
A charity established to benefit a specific person cannot qualify
for 501(c)(3) status, even if that person is in need. To have a true
"charitable class," the specific individuals who will benefit cannot
be known or selected ahead of time.

Aloha e Sandy,

I just want to send you a short note to let you know that our
Hawaiian organization was approved for 501(c)(3) status. Mahalo Nui
Loa for putting out such a USER FRIENDLY book that got me through
the process. We saved legal fees as a result of the purchase of your
book. In addition, I also want to thank you for responding to my
e-mail questions.

A Hui Hou,
Mona Foster
President/Founder
