Various happenings of the Board of Directors

[Ubahsur Kindellaer]

would it help if we were a religious institution?

There are many ways to be considered for 501(c)(3) status. Religion is only one. Luckily, we qualify under being a charity. Having multiple areas of qualification don't make us a better candidate - just a different one.

Mailing this was a HUGE weight off my shoulders. And I am very, very, very grateful to Dralyn for all her hard work.

Heh, well, Ubahsur Sedai, I think it would still be amusing to have our own religion.

Great work, all of you!!

Y'all do such a great job! Thank you for all you do!

 

[Miridyth Al'Landerin]

Thank you...so this now makes us official?

So we can tell our families we belong to an official "charitable organization" instead of an unofficial "cult"? Good to know!! :8)

Seriously..thanks to everyone over the years who have donated huge amounts of time and energy to make this site what it has become...everyone has been awesome!!

 

[Eniara Kisharad]

Excellent news!

 

[Dralyn Montsier]

Miridyth - we are legally incorporated with 501c3 charitable status pending.

 

[Lyara Tieran]

:joy This is great! Thankyou, Dralyn, for everything, and thanks to the rest of the administration for all you do to make this site marvelous!

And I totally *should* have done this in the original post (and will edit to reflect), but these people were extremely helpful in getting the 1023 packet together for submission:

Kariada
Meilen
and most especially Ubah, who worked diligently beside me and took some panicked phone calls late at night when I realized something else was wrong.

 

[Aryela Dashtahd]
