We are a 501(c)(3) organization, but are a “supporting organization” under Section 509(a)(3). Can we apply for funding?
This is not a simple question! We will likely require an opinion from your legal counsel that your organization is a Type I or Type II supporting organization or is a “functionally integrated” Type III supporting organization before we will consider funding. We urge you to consult with legal or tax counsel regarding this matter before you submit an inquiry.
