------ =_NextPart_000_01BD6C2A.46DDA900 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear Karen, First of all congratulations on undertaking the project to start a = support fund for PD. I have recently finished a similar project to establish the Northwest = Parkinson's Foundation (NWPF). The purpose of NWPF is similar - raise = awareness, educate, vocalize, and solicit resources. The foundation is = also to help raise money and support for a PD clinic here in Seattle and = supplement the budget for the clinic that hopefully will be doors open = in early fall. The initial step was to establish a non-for-profit corporation here in = Washington State. The second step was to apply for a tax exempt status = from the IRS (501-c3) which allows all contributions to be tax = deductible for the givers. The forms are long and typically confusing. = I opted to have a lawyer due the filings so as to insure correctness in = all the entries ( it's a good first contribution - by a lawyer no = less!). The IRS forms are available on the internet and the State = Corporation forms are sent to you by calling the Secretary of State's = office. Good luck and let me know how it goes.

The reason for starting this organization is to provide a better quality of life for people with Parkinson's Disease in Maine. This will be accomplished through better communication, coordination of efforts, education, fund raising, etc.. Has anything like this already been accomplished in any of the other 49 states? If it has, I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has information regarding starting this type of an organization. Thank you.
