FAQs
What is 501(c)(3) status and why are we working so hard to change that designation?
It is a non-profit status that will enable us to apply for sponsorships, enable tax write-offs for donations for individuals, reduce our insurance and QuickBooks costs and save us much money. Most other guilds are under this category.
Who has been working on this ByLaw/ 501(c)(3) project and for how long?
Deb Wilson, Peggy Calvert, Sherry Hoyt, Sandy Milo, Jeanne Dinkle, Patti Pane, Betsy Weisman, Brigette Brink, Cheri Hansen, Denise Rainier, Anita Adriano, Laura Brown, and others.
This process has been going on for over 20 Months and will resolve with the vote on the new Bylaws on October 8. This is one of the steps in achieving 501(c)(3) status for OCQG. Once these new Bylaws are accepted we will be getting ready to submit our paperwork to the State.
Where can I find a copy of the current version (before changes) of the Bylaws so I can see what has changed?
The version of the Bylaws that are currently in effect is on our website: https://www.orangecountyquiltersguild.org/bylaws-and-standing-policies
