Catalyst Society has submitted an application to the Internal Revenue Service for recognition as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. The application is currently pending, and the IRS has not yet issued a determination.
Contributors do not have advance assurance that a contribution is tax deductible while the application is pending. If the IRS ultimately recognizes exemption for the period in which a contribution was made, the contribution may qualify; if the application is not approved, it will not. Online giving is not currently enabled on this website. Please consult your own tax adviser regarding your circumstances.
