The folks at Foundation Group really went the distance in helping me get the documentation I needed to get GLS Veterans Home its 501c3 status. The process took me about a year to get completed (due to challenges on my end). Through it all they hung in there and helped me when I needed a question answered, if I didn't understand something in the process. Once I was able to gain the information I needed to get to them, the process went quickly. They were extremely efficient and helpful throughout the whole process. Heather Young was courteous, kind and helpful as were the rest of the folks there. If/when I ever decide to start another non-profit, I would definitely use their services again. Thank you to everyone at Foundation Group.

It wasn't easy but I will owe a lot of my Foundation's success to the success of your staff, from the receptionist to the consultants. When I was discouraged, it was your Tennessee courtesy, patience and your confidence that kept me on the road map, on course to obtaining my 501(c)(3) IRS tax exempt status... Hooyah-

Love this group! Could not have gotten our 501c3 status if it was not for them. Not only did they help organize all the paperwork but they talked me off the ledge many times when I was worried about a potential problem. I highly recommend them!

I cannot say enough good about this organization! The communication has been exceptional. Their support is encouraging and reassuring. Any 501c3 start-up can be quite detailed and/or difficult. Their knowledge of the field and expertise has helped me over and over as I work through this start up process. A year ago, I hired a lawyer for over $3,000 who promised me the world in starting up my 501c3. I did all the start-up work and completed the 30 page application with all the requirements. He never filed. He gave one excuse after another, and finally I just walked away and had to cut my losses. I have hesitated doing anything since as I couldn't afford another financial hit like that one. As I talked with the Foundation Group, they clearly, and explicitly walked through the process with me. I understood completely what they offered and provided!! They were the answer to prayer I have been look for this past year!!
