Non-Profit Annual 990 Reports
Not-for-Profit Exempt organizations are required to file Form 990 on an annual
basis to increase the transparency of the organization. The information is
considered by the IRS to be public domain information in-so-far as a not-for-profit
entity gains beneficial tax status for the organization as well as the American
Tax Payer.
Organizational Structure
The American Guild of English Handbell Ringers (AGEHR) is incorporated in the State of
Delaware but contrary to its State Charter designating it as a resident entity,
actually has its residence in the State of Ohio. The Guild does not in any way
own or have operating jurisdiction over any of the geographical sub-areas, each of which
carry their own incorporation status.
AGEHR regional organizations (designated Areas) are separately incorporated entities that are aligned by
purpose with the AGEHR. The Corportate naming of each entity varies but in general,
reflects the symbiotic relationship with the AGEHR. The only requirement that has
been imposed on Areas alligning themselves with the AGEHR is the requirement to operate
within the bounds of the AGEHR bylaws. AGEHR bylaws suggest a number of sub-area
organizational splits, but the final decision as to organization structure is
retained by the Areas themselves. At this writing, AGEHR had suggested twelve AREAS
although there are more than this number in existence.
AGEHR and the an National Areas are separately incorporated and by Federal Law, must
report annually to the IRS using Form 990. The purpose of this form is to force
here-to-fore hidden operation to become more transparent in order to (a) assure the
IRS that the purposes for granting tax free status are appropriate and correctly
managed, (b) to assure the American Taxpayer that such organization are correctly
using donated assets in their operation, and (c) to provide in the open a standardized
reporting structure showing the operations and ongoing financial health of the
organization.
