Taxes & Tithes, It's Your Money A Resource Guide for Faith and Community Organizations

There''s a quotation that says; "there are two things for certain in life and they are death and taxes.''* This book addresses for faith and community organizations both of them, the death of their organization if their not compliant with the laws that govern non-profit organizations and if they are interested, how they may qualify for government and foundation funds. This resource guide is written to train and educate congregations about their role in the Faith-Based and Community Initiative. Note: this guide is not for everyone. There are many faith partners that believe receiving government funding is a curse. All I am saying here is if you desire or are already seeking; funding you should be wise to the laws that govern you. It was the discussions with pastors who doubt the faith based initiative that lead me to write this guide. The premise is simple. Since individuals and congregations pay taxes, they are entitled to receive those funds through federal, state and local grants and put them back into the community in which they live.Peterson, Willie F. is the author of 'Taxes & Tithes, It's Your Money A Resource Guide for Faith and Community Organizations' with ISBN 9781418445812 and ISBN 1418445819.
