# LAW
Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code") of 1986 provides, in part, for the exemption from federal income tax of organizations organized and operated exclusively for charitable, religious, or educational purposes, no part of the net earnings of which inures to the benefit of any private shareholder or individual.
Section 1.501 (c)(3)-1 (a)(1) of the Income Tax Regulations ("Regulations") states that, in order to be exempt as an organization described in section 501 (c)(3) of the Code, an organization must be both organized and operated exclusively for one or more of the purposes specified in such section. If an organization fails to meet either the organizational test or the operational test, it is not exempt.
Section 1.501 (c)(3)-1 (c)(1) of the Regulations provides that an organization will be regarded as operated exclusively for exempt purposes only if it engages primarily in activities, which accomplish one or more exempt purposes. An organization will not be so regarded if more than an insubstantial part of its activities is not in furtherance of an exempt purpose.
Section 1.501(c)(3)-1(d)(1 )(ii) of the Regulations provides that an organization is not organized or operated exclusively for exempt purposes unless it serves a public rather than a private interest. Thus, even if an organization has many activities which further exempt purposes, exemption may be precluded if it serves a private interest.
Section 1.501 (c)(3)-1 (d)(2) of the Regulations defines the term "charitable" as including the relief of the poor and distressed or of the underprivileged, and the promotion of social welfare by organizations designed to lessen neighborhood tensions, to eliminate prejudice and discrimination, or to combat community deterioration. The term "charitable" also includes the advancement of education and the promotion of social welfare by organization designed to combat community deterioration.

(b) the instruction of the public on subjects useful to the individual and beneficial to the community.
An example in this section states that an organization whose activities consist of presenting public discussion groups, forums, panels, lectures, or other similar programs, may be an educational organization.
Section 6001 of the Code provides that every person liable for any tax imposed by the Code, or for the collection thereof, shall keep adequate records as the Secretary of the Treasury or his delegate may from time to time prescribe.
Section 6033(a)(1) of the Code provides that except as provided in section 6033(a)(2) of the Code, every organization exempt from tax under section 501 (a) of the Code shall file an annual return, stating specifically the items of gross income, receipts and disbursements, and such other information for the purposes of carrying out the internal revenue laws as the Secretary may by forms or regulations prescribe, and keep such records, render under oath such statements, make such other returns, and comply with such rules and regulations as the Secretary may from time to time prescribe.
Section 1.6001-Ha) of the Regulations in conjunction with Reg. section 1.6001-1(c) provides that every organization exempt from tax under section 501 (a) of the Code and subject to the tax imposed by section 511 of the Code on its unrelated business income must keep such permanent books or accounts or records, including inventories, as are sufficient to establish the amount of gross income, deduction, credits, or other matters required to be shown by such person in any return of such tax. Such organization shall also keep such books and records as are required to substantiate the information required by section 6033 of the Code.

Section 1.6033-1 (h)(2) of the Regulations provides that every organization which has established its right to exemption from tax, whether or not it is required to file an annual return of information, shall submit such additional information as may be required by the district director for the purpose of enabling him to inquire further into its exempt status and to administer the provisions of subchapter F (section 501 and the following), chapter 1 of the Code and section 6033 of the Code.
Revenue Ruling ("Rev. Rul.") 59-95. 1959-1 C.B. 627, concerns an Exempt Organization that was requested to produce a financial statement and statement of its operations for a certain year.
However, its records were so incomplete that the organization was unable to furnish such statements. The Service held that the failure or inability to file the required information return or otherwise to comply with the provisions of section 6033 of the Code and the regulations which implement it, may result in the termination of the exempt status of an organization previously held exempt, on the grounds that the organization has not established that it is observing the conditions required for the continuation of exempt status.
TAXPAYER'S POSITION:
Taxpayer's position is unknown.
GOVERNMENT'S POSITION
In accordance with the above cited provisions of the Code and Regulations under sections 6001 and
6033, organizations recognized as exempt from federal income tax must meet certain reporting requirements. These requirements relate to the filing of a complete and accurate annual information (and other required federal tax forms) and the retention of records sufficient to determine whether such entity is operated for the purposes for which it was granted tax-exempt status and to determine its liability for any unrelated business income tax.
