The list was compiled through a good faith search of tax returns filed with the Internal Revenue Service and a review of other publicly available documents.

If you discover one, please accept our sincerest apologies and send us your additions and corrections by email.
TAX EXEMPT CLASSIFICATION
While there are many Door County organizations that are "tax-exempt" under section 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, not all of them are considered charitable by the IRS.
Generally speaking, a contribution to an organization classified as a 501 (c)(3) public charity earns you the maximum tax deduction as allowed by law. The tax deductibility to other types of 501 (c) organizations varies depending on a number of factors. Please contact the respective organzations to confirm their tax status and the deductibility of any gift you might choose to make.
Visit the IRS website for a complete explanation of the different types of exempt organizations.
While a good faith effort was made when compiling this list, the Door County Community Foundation does not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of this information.
