501(c)(3) and TAX EXEMPT STATUS
Orange County Department of Social Services
What is a Private Nan Profit Agency?
Answer: A private non profit is an organization that is incorporated under State law and whose
purpose is not to make a profit, but rather to further a charitable, civic, religious, scientific, or
other lawful purpose. The Secretary of State's office grants corporate status to organizations in
North Carolina.
What is a 501(c)(3) designation?
Answer: When the agency becomes a state private non profit corporation, it can then apply for
501(c)(3) designation through the IRS. Once the IRS grants 501(c)(3) status, the organization is
exempt from certain taxes and any donations to the charitable organization are tax deductible.
Many individuals and organizations prefer to make donations to 501(c)(3) private non profits.
Who can obtain a 501(c)(3) designation?
Answer: Any organization or group can apply for 501(c)(3) status, provided their charter or
mission focuses on the non profit's objective.
Another option is to apply for a 509(a)(1) status which falls under the 501(c)(3) umbrella. Being
a 509(a)(1) designates an organization as a tax -free public charity that receives most of its
support from a governmental unit or from the general public. Becoming a 509(x)(1) provides
public recognition of tax - exempt status, advance assurance to donors of deductibility of
contributions, exemption from certain State and federal taxes, and non profit mailing privileges.
Organizations that typically qualify are churches, educational institutions, hospitals, and
governmental units.
To learn more about non profits, visit www.irs.gov„ or call the tax - exempt helpline at 877 -829-
4933.
How does a Private Non Profit obtain Tax Exempt Status?
A private non profit must apply to the IRS for tax exempt status. To qualify, applicants must
complete and submit to the IRS Form 1023. Once federal tax exempt status is granted, the
private non profit applies for State tax exempt status by completing Form CD -435 and
submitting it to the N. C. Department of Revenue.
Please attach proof of 501(c)(3) or IRS tax - exempt status to this page,

Certification Regarding Nondiscrimination
The Contractor certifies that it will comply with all Federal statutes relating to
nondiscrimination. These include but are not limited to: (a) Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of
1964 (P.L. 88 -352) which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color or national origin;
(b) Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, as amended (20 U.S.C. § §1681 -1683, and
1685 - 1686), which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex; (c) Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. §794), which prohibits discrimination on the
basis of handicaps; (d) the Age Discrimination Act of 1975, as amended (42 U.S.C. § §6101-
61017), which prohibits discrimination on the basis of age; (e) the Drug Abuse Office and
Treatment Act of 1972 (P.L. 92 -255), as amended, relating to nondiscrimination on the basis of
drug abuse; (f) the Comprehensive Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism Prevention, Treatment and
Rehabilitation Act of 1970 (P.L. 91 -616), as amended, relating to nondiscrimination on the basis
of alcohol abuse or alcoholism; (g) Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 (42 U.S.C. § §3601
et seq.), as amended, relating to nondiscrimination in the sale, rental or financing of housing; (h)
the Food Stamp Act and USDA policy, which prohibit discrimination on the basis of religion and
political beliefs; and (i) the requirements of any other nondiscrimination statutes which may
apply to this Agreement..
The Contractor must comply with Executive Order 11246, entitled "Equal Employment
Opportunity," as amended by Executive Order 11375, and as supplemented by the Department of
Labor Regulations (41 CFR Part 60): The Executive Order prohibits federal contractors and
federally- assisted construction contractors and subcontractors who do over $10,000 in
Government business in one year from discriminating in employment decisions on the basis of
race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. The Executive Order also requires Government
contractors to take affirmative action to ensure that equal opportunity is provided in all aspects of
their employment.
Meaninjzful Access for LEP Individuals: The Contractor that participate in the SNAP must take
reasonable steps to ensure that LEP persons have meaningful access to programs, services, and
benefits. This includes the requirement to provide bilingual program information and
certification materials and interpretation services to single language minorities in certain project
areas. SNAP Contractors that do not provide meaningful access for LEP individuals risk
violating prohibitions against discrimination based on National Origin in the Food and Nutrition
Act of 2008, as amended, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI) and SNAP program
regulations at 7 CFR 272A(b). They also risk noncompliance with the USDA policy guidance
titled, "Guidance to Federal Financial Assistance Recipients Regarding Title VI Prohibition
Against National Origin Discrimination Affecting Limited English Proficient Persons ",
published in 79 FR 70771 - 70784 (November 28, 2014).
The Contractor should develop an implementing plan to address the language assistance needs
of the LEP population served. This may include contracting for oral interpretation services,
hiring bilingual staff, arranging telephone interpreters and/or language lines, coordinating
community volunteers, translating vital documents, and providing written notice that language
services are available in appropriate languages. Quality and accuracy of the language service is

Ensuring E ual Opportunity Access for Persons with Disabilities: The Contractor must also
ensure equal opportunity access for persons with disabilities. This includes ensuring that
communications with applicants, participants, members of the public, and companions with
disabilities are as effective as communications with people without disabilities. Contractors that
do not provide persons with disabilities equal opportunity access to programs may risk violating
prohibitions against disability discrimination in the Rehabilitation Act of 1978, the American
with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, as amended, and SNAP program regulations.
DCJ published revised final regulations implementing Title II and Title III of the ADA on
September 15, 2010. These regulations are codified at 28 CFR Part 35 "Nondiscrimination on
the Basis of Disability in State and Local Government Services" and at 28 CFR Part 36
"Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Public Accommodations and Commercial
Facilities ". In accordance with the implementing regulations, Contractors must provide auxiliary
aids and services where necessary to ensure effective communication and equal opportunity
access to program benefits for individuals with disabilities. The type of auxiliary aids and
services required will vary, but a Contractor may not require an individual with a disability to
bring another individual to interpret, and may rely on a person accompanying a disabled
individual only in limited circumstances. When a Contractor communicates with applicants and
beneficiaries by telephone, it must provide text telephone services (ITY) or have access to an
equally effective electronic telecommunications system to communicate with individuals who are
deaf, hard of hearing, or hearing impaired. Contractors must also ensure that interested persons,
including persons with impaired vision or hearing, can obtain information as to the existence and
location of accessible services, activities, and facilities. For more information, please visit the
ADA website: http: / /www.ada.gov.
