Our task is to keep you in compliance with the states.
A professional fundraiser must obtain permission from a state agency prior to engaging in any solicitation activity on behalf of a charity. Some states issue fundraising licenses, some a simple letter of acknowledgment, and some a certificate to confirm that the fundraiser has the state’s permission to provide their specific services to their client. Permission from state agencies must be renewed by the required deadlines.
