Alabama Chapters

Chris Clay, General Counsel for DAV National states 501c(3) definition of donations to charitable entities which provide services to charitable organizations defined as "orphans, disabled, homeless, etc..." 501c(4) is donation to charitable organizations which also are allowed to garner membership. Potential donations need to be educated by our chapters and membership by persuasive and well organized individuals. Determination letter from IRS for DAV and subordinate chapters/auxiliaries is important to all DAV Chapters who are seeking help from businesses who argue the point that they will not donate because of the 501c(4) status. It argues the point that the donations made to your chapters are actually tax deductible. IRS Exemption Letter> Letter is available on National website under the "Learn About Us" tab and under resources.
