And thanks to Gina Matthiesen, who alerts us to this helpful resource in the latest issue of The Counselor, newsletter of the ISBA Section on Business Advice and Financial Planning. It's easier to be a do-gooder when someone assembles the resources you need and places them conveniently at your disposal, just waiting for you to do that pro-bono thing you do. A website created by the Illinois Attorney General, called “Building Better Charities,” does just that by pulling together the forms and instructions required to register a charitable organization in Illinois. Gina describes what's there and helps you figure out more generally what you should and shouldn't try to do for your favorite charity.
