PADM 7040 Nonprofit Management Chapters 1 & 2 Overview Jerry Merwin
Chapters 1 & 2 Overview • I. DEVELOPING A CUSTOMER ORIENTATION. • Chapter 1. The Growth and Development of Nonprofit Marketing. • Chapter 2. Developing a Customer-Centered Mind-Set.
Weeks 1 & 2 Overview (2) • I also want to clarify a few things about our topics that might not be covered clearly in the textbooks. • First, let me explain that we generally talk about three types of organizations: • Private – or “for profit” – the typical business • Public – government organizations, including federal, state, and local (city or county) • Nonprofit – organizations created for some specific purpose, generally for the public good, and typically incorporated, with a board of directors, staff, and volunteers • “The primary purpose of nonprofits is to involve people in promoting the common good,” (Nonprofit Quarterly Newsletter, October 2003, Issue 27, copied from web August 21, 2005).
Weeks 1 & 2 Overview (3) • There are many similarities among these three types of organizations and some important differences. • Nonprofits are regulated by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). • While there are many types of nonprofits, as defined by the IRS, I believe our focus is the 501(c)(3). • The 501(c)(3) represents the number of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) for the law covering charitable organizations. • These organizations are called charitable, or “tax exempt” in that contributors can deduct donations to these organizations from their income tax.
Weeks 1 & 2 Overview (4) • Go to the IRS web site to learn more about “charitable organizations” and the requirements. • Check to see if the organization you are researching is classified as a 501(c)(3). • If not, please be sure to find out how the IRS classifies the organization. • It might still be OK to use the organization for your project, but check this early in your research and let me know.
