Nonprofits at Risk

Are you a Molokai nonprofit that hasn’t filed your tax return yet? You may lose your tax exempt status if you don’t file tax returns immediately.

The IRS recently implemented a new tax filing requirement for small nonprofit organizations.  Those who have not filed tax returns with the IRS now risk losing their 501(c)(3) status.  The IRS has a complete list of all the endangered Hawai’i nonprofits at this link: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-tege/hi.pdf

The following Molokai nonprofits are on the IRS list to lose their tax exempt status because they have not filed IRS tax returns:

– Big Brothers/Sisters of Molokai Inc. PO Box 557, Kaunakakai HI 96748
– Halia Aloha. PO Box 56 Hoolehua HI 96729
