Find out why so many nonprofits trust our experts to help them get started...

Our 100% Approval Rate Means You Will Get IRS Approval!
The Foundation Group really has a 100% approval rate. Every 501c3 application filed that we've prepared and represented** has been granted tax-exempt status. We accomplish this by actually getting to know your organization and its programs, thereby ensuring that your organization is properly structured.
Our Experience - Trusted by Attorneys and Other Professionals Nationwide.
Find out what attorneys, CPAs and other professionals already know: our expert staff members are the go-to people for starting a 501c3. These professionals regularly turn to us to serve their clients. You can rest assured that our team is absolutely dedicated to the success of your nonprofit organization!
Affordable Expertise...Get the Process Started Today for Only $350*!
You don't have to shell out a fortune to have the best working for you. Our flat-fee 501c3 startup services cost far less than the open-ended fees most accountants and attorneys charge...many of whom have little or no experience dealing with nonprofit organizations like yours.
By the same token, we are not a bargain-basement internet company or online legal-filings service. Their "low price" buys you nothing more than forms-creation and does nothing to equip you for 501c3 success. That's not our idea of a bargain.
Our staff members are seasoned, career professionals, most of whom are experienced, nonprofit leaders themselves. They understand, first-hand, what lies ahead of you. We give you what you need to succeed, from coaching and guidance, all the way to full, IRS-representation...even post-formation program, funding and operations development is available.
We know times are tight...Ask about our flexible payment options!
*Packages start at $1,200 and include nonprofit incorporation process. Schools, colleges, hospitals and scientific research organizations require substantially more work and are priced higher accordingly. IRS and/or state filing fees, if applicable, are not included.
We Offer an Iron-Clad, Money-Back Guarantee**.
We are so confident of your success that we will gladly refund our representation fee...even your IRS filing fee...should your application for tax-exemption be denied. As our valued clients can attest...that's a guarantee we've never had to honor!
**Applies to packages that include representation. Ask your sales associate for details.
