A local business wants to support our fundraising event, but they need the Make-A-Wish Foundations tax identification number, what does that mean?
The purpose of the Make-A-Wish Foundation’s tax identification number is to have sales tax waived when purchasing products, etc. that directly benefit the Foundation. The IRS does not allow the waiver of sales tax for items used for events that are not produced by the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Most likely, local businesses will request our 501(3)(c) letter which identifies the Make-A-Wish Foundation as a legal nonprofit organization. Businesses include this letter with their tax filings to prove the charities they support are legitimate.
