Part X Public Charity Status

Part X is designed to classify you as an organization that is either a private foundation or a public charity. Public charity status is a

more favorable tax status than private foundation status. If you are a private foundation, Part X is designed to further determine

whether you are a private operating foundation. See instructions.

1 a

Are you a private foundation? If “Yes,” go to line 1b. If “No,” go to line 5 and proceed as instructed. If you

are unsure, see the instructions.

Yes No

As a private foundation, section 508(e) requires special provisions in your organizing document in

addition to those that apply to all organizations described in section 501(c)(3). Check the box to confirm

that your organizing document meets this requirement, whether by express provision or by reliance on

operation of state law. Attach a statement that describes specifically where your organizing document

meets this requirement, such as a reference to a particular article or section in your organizing document

or by operation of state law. See the instructions, including Appendix B, for information about the special

provisions that need to be contained in your organizing document. Go to line 2.

Are you a private operating foundation? To be a private operating foundation you must engage directly in

the active conduct of charitable, religious, educational, and similar activities, as opposed to indirectly

carrying out these activities by providing grants to individuals or other organizations. If “Yes,” go to line 3.

If “No,” go to the signature section of Part XI.

Yes No

Have you existed for one or more years? If “Yes,” attach financial information showing that you are a

private operating foundation; go to the signature section of Part XI. If “No,” continue to line 4.

Yes No

Have you attached either (1) an affidavit or opinion of counsel, (including a written affidavit or opinion

from a certified public accountant or accounting firm with expertise regarding this tax law matter), that

sets forth facts concerning your operations and support to demonstrate that you are likely to satisfy the

requirements to be classified as a private operating foundation; or (2) a statement describing your

proposed operations as a private operating foundation?

Yes No

If you answered “No” to line 1a, indicate the type of public charity status you are requesting by checking one of the choices

below. You may check only one box.

The organization is not a private foundation because it is:

a 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(i)—a church or a convention or association of churches. Complete and attach Schedule A.

b 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(ii)—a school. Complete and attach Schedule B.

509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(iii)—a hospital, a cooperative hospital service organization, or a medical research

organization operated in conjunction with a hospital. Complete and attach Schedule C.

509(a)(3)—an organization supporting either one or more organizations described in line 5a through c, f, h, or i or a

publicly supported section 501(c)(4), (5), or (6) organization. Complete and attach Schedule D.
