OUNCE OF PREVENTION FUND BEGINS WORK WITH 501(c) SERVICES

By October 25, 2018No Comments

Today, we welcome Ounce of Prevention Fund as a new program participant of 501(c) Agencies Trust.

Ounce of Prevention Fund is now returning much of the money they had been sending to the state in the form of unemployment taxes to their programs and services. It’s a solution that all 501(c)(3) nonprofits with more than 15 employees should consider.

They choose 501(c) Agencies Trust from a suite of programs provided by 501(c) Services that are designed to help them save money on their unemployment taxes. Federal law allows 501(c)(3)s to stop paying their unemployment taxes and to self-fund their own programs. Doing so can save organizations 40 to 60 percent on those unemployment insurance costs.

Since 1982, the Ounce of Prevention Fund has persistently pursued a single goal: that all children living in America—particularly those born into poverty—have quality early childhood experiences in the crucial first five years of life. They serve more than 4,000 children and families directly through birth-to-five programs they fund and operate in Chicago as well as through their network of voluntary home visiting programs throughout Illinois.


CALCULATE YOUR OVERPAYMENT

Even though all 501(c)(3) nonprofits have the option to not pay their state unemployment insurance (SUI) taxes many still do. What results are massive overpayments. Our industry estimates indicate that 86% of nonprofits are overpaying their state unemployment costs.*

Calculate your organization’s SUI overpayment today using our SUI Overpayment Calculator.

Then, if you like, we will show you a full suite of options that you can choose from to replace your SUI taxes – and save thousands of dollars annually.

*Based on results reported from over 500 taxpaying nonprofits contacted by 501(c) Services.
