By Thomas Quinlin  Private Foundation Vs Supporting Organization  What's the Difference & Which Should You Choose?
You know what a private foundation is โ€ฆ   ,[object Object],โ€ฆ but what in the world is a supporting organization?  And why does it matter?
First of all, the biggest difference is that while private foundations are โ€ฆ โ€ฆ by definition private, supporting organizations are public charities
As such, they are  not subject to the more restrictive rules  &  limitations  that apply to foundations โ€ฆ   ,[object Object]
Here is an example โ€ฆ ,[object Object],โ€ฆ it is  deductible up to 50%  of the donor's adjusted gross income
In contrast, a cash contribution made to a private foundation โ€ฆ ,[object Object]
When you contribute appreciated assets, such as real estate or stock โ€ฆ ,[object Object]
In contrast, these same contributions made to a  non-operating foundation โ€ฆ   ,[object Object]
Not only that, but the deduction is only available โ€ฆ   ,[object Object],โ€ฆ which essentially means that it consists of publicly trades shares
In addition,  supporting organizations  are technically  "public" charities โ€ฆ ,[object Object]
On the other hand, private foundations are โ€ฆ   โ€ฆ subject to the more onerous private foundation operating rules under  Code Sections 4940 through 4945
These stringent rules include the following โ€ฆ
Rule # 1 A 1% to 2% tax on net investment income
Rule # 2 An  excise tax  if  at least 5%  or more of the value of the foundation's investment assets are  not distributed annually ย 
[object Object],Rule # 3
Jeopardy investments are investments โ€ฆ ,[object Object]
[object Object],Rule # 4 โ€ฆ prohibitions of transaction  between  the foundation itself  &  certain insiders
The prohibited transactions are far reaching  &  include โ€ฆ   ,[object Object]
[object Object],Rule # 5
Supporting organizations are not subject to all these limitations โ€ฆ
โ€ฆ including supporting organizations  So if you're thinking of setting up a foundation โ€ฆ โ€ฆ you may want to learn more about the various options you have โ€ฆ
Let's recap โ€ฆ ,[object Object],โ€ฆ while you're making a real difference in the worldย 
You're invited to  claim your free chapter   of the  ultimate guide ,[object Object],[object Object]
