LMSC GRANTED 501 (C) (3) TAX STATUS



August 29, 2006 - On August 29, 2006, the LMSC received notification from the Internal Revenue Service that the Club was exempt from the Federal income tax under section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The LMSC submitted an application to the Internal Revenue Service for this recognition. This status was granted after the IRS received and reviewed extensive financial records and corporate organizational documentation pertaining to the LMSC.

One of the primary benefits of being considered tax-exempt under Internal Revenue Code Section 501 (c) (3) is the ability to accept contributions and donations that are tax-deductible to the donor. Contributions to the LMSC are now tax-deductible under the Code. In addition, the LMSC is qualified to receive tax deductible bequests, devises, transfers or gifts under the tax code. Additional benefits include exemption from federal and/or state corporate income taxes, the ability to apply for grants and other public or private allocations available only to IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) organizations, discounts on US Postal bulk-mail rates and other services, and the public legitimacy of IRS recognition. The effective date of the exemption dates back to 1989, which marks the inception of the LMSC.
