yes i do and other people do. i've incorporated many 501c3s and they all want their official status immediately in order to get big donors.
stop being a rube.
There's a big difference between c3s and c4s. Donations to c3s are tax deductible, so yes - donors would care.
Donations to c4s are not.
But you knew that already, right?
Why do you keep whinging about them not disclosing donors if the donations are not deductible?
Excuse me?
Where have I "whinged" about that?
