THINK SHEET | 1 Missions Locally and Globally THE GIFT YOU CAN’T AFFORD NOT TO GIVE n this series we have been looking at the beauty and joy Closely related to tithing in the Bible is the idea of giving the that come with a generous life by working through the firstfruits of our income to God. So rather than just giving I book, The Treasure Principle. The kind of giving that we’re 10% of our income to God, it’s actually giving the first 10% talking about today has the rich blessings of God attached to Him. This roots tithing in faith. It shows that we trust to it. God with what we have now without knowing if we’ll get any more. Tithing is always an exercise of faith in the character î Read Malachi 3.6–12. and provision of God. There are a lot of good things to be QUESTION: Has tithing been drawn from this rich passage, but TITHING IS ALWAYS a regular part of your life? we’re going to focus on four things What makes it difficult for us from verse 10: What tithes are, AN EXERCISE OF to practice? where we bring tithes, why we bring tithes and what tithes result in. While tithing comes up a lot in the FAITH IN THE Old Testament, it doesn’t show up CHARACTER AND much in the New Testament. But 1. WHAT TITHES ARE. why? Obviously just because some- A tithe simply means a tenth part, or PROVISION OF GOD. thing is only the Old Testament 10%. If someone says, “I tithe 5%,” doesn’t mean we can ignore it. The that wouldn’t be correct. That’s why commands of the Old Testament are God says “Bring the whole tithe into rooted in the character of God. And the storehouse.” This practice is rooted in Leviticus 27:30, as we saw in verse 6 of our passage, God says, “I the Lord do which says, “A tithe of everything from the land, whether not change.” grain from the soil or fruit from the trees belongs to [the LORD]; it is holy to the LORD.” What Jesus often did with Old Testament teachings was expand them rather than nullify them. In Matthew 5 THE THINK SHEET | 1 missions locally and globally. Secondly, verse 9 said tithes FOR JESUS, TITHING IS and offerings. Offerings consist of giving above our tithes. As we get into the discipline of tithing, we will find that NOT AN END GOAL, IT IS A our hearts expand toward the other needs in our world. We have the privilege of giving offerings that will fund these STARTING POINT IN GIVING. good causes. QUESTION: What ministries or causes do you get excited Jesus takes the Old Testament law of “do not murder” and about? How does your giving reflect that? expands it to include being angry with someone. Likewise, He takes the law of “do not commit adultery” and expands it to include lust. He takes Old Testament principles and 3. WHY WE BRING THE TITHE. expands them to be wider and deeper. The reason given by God in verse 10 is, “that there might be food in my house.” The idea was that as God’s people faith- In the same way, Jesus expands the idea of tithing. Only one fully brought their tithe, the resources would be available time, in Matthew 23.23, does Jesus affirm tithing. Every for God’s purposes. We should never separate the blessing other time Jesus teaches on money, He asks far more from of God in our lives from the purpose of God in the world. It’s His followers than just 10%. And it makes sense when we not just bring the tithe in the storehouse, it’s for a purpose— think of how much more Christians have received compared that there might be food in the storehouse. to Old Testament believers. We have received more of God’s revelation, truth, and grace. We are more indebted to God’s Statistics say that Christians in America give about 1.8% grace. Jesus didn’t just tithe His blood for us, He gave His to ministry. While that may look depressing, it also should whole life. make us see how much potential exists in the American church. Imagine the kinds of problems that could be solved For Jesus, tithing is not an end goal, it is a starting point in and the kind of good that could be done if the American giving. It is like training wheels for new Christians. Tithing church would start tithing instead of stealing from God. helps us just begin to break the hold of materialism and As Christians capture a vision for tithing, there’s no telling greed in our heart so that we can begin to live contagiously what God can accomplish through the obedience of His generous lives. And as a person’s income grows and their people. We want every resource needed to be available for spiritual maturity grows, the percentage of their giving God’s purposes to be advanced in the world. actually grows as well. 4. THE RESULTS OF TITHING. 2. WHERE TO BRING TITHES. Finally, in verse 10 God says to test Him in the tithe “and see The word “storehouse” in verse 10 means literally the house if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour of the treasury. In Old Testament times it was where the out so much blessing that there will not be room enough funds were kept for the work of God. This is another place to store it.” The text is saying that as we choose to tithe, where we need to ask how an Old Testament concept trans- God Almighty will choose to bless our lives in ways we can lates into a New Testament context. In the New Testament, scarcely begin to imagine. God is no longer focused on advancing His work through the Jewish temple or synagogue, instead He is focused î Read 2 Corinthians 9.7–11. on advancing His work through the local church. In the New Testament a church is a community of believers with As we see here, it’s not just an Old Testament concept. God is elders and accountability structures who are living out the a God of blessing and He loves to throw open His floodgates functions of a church: worship, evangelism, discipleship, of blessing to people who are financially faithful. There are compassion, etc. So when it comes to tithing, it follows that tithes are best directed to the local church. If we’re using our tithes to support the local animal shelter, a political cause, or some WE SHOULD NEVER SEPARATE other charitable organization, we’re missing the point. But what about other ministries—how do they get funded? First THE BLESSING OF GOD IN OUR off, if we’re part of a biblical church, it should be investing significant resources in missions.

  • Audit Technique Guide – Fundraising Activities
    Audit Technique Guide – Fundraising Activities Introduction This guide addresses examining tax exempt organization fundraising and provides: Background information Audit guidelines Audit techniques Audit procedures This guide is not all-inclusive and doesn’t intend to limit agents to identifying issues or using techniques not listed in this guide. For information on fundraising issues involving political organizations, see the Audit Technique Guide for Political Organizations. For information on fundraising issues involving gaming activities, see the Audit Technique Guide for Organizations Conducting Gaming Activities. This manual is organized into five sections: Background information Activities (professional fundraisers, fundraising events, internet fundraising) Records (solicitations, disclosures, cash contributions, non-cash contributions) Reporting (Form 990-EZ, Form 990: Core Return, Schedule G, Schedule M, Form 990-PF, Form 990-T) Audit procedures (pre-audit, field/OCEP, penalty considerations, case closing) Background Most, if not all, tax exempt organizations need money. Many exempt purposes can only be achieved via the application of money. Thus, large numbers of organizations devote significant resources to acquiring money. These organizations use various methods to obtain funds, ranging from selling a product or service, conducting a fundraising event, to just asking for money. Traditional methods of obtaining funds include soliciting donors via the mail, phone calls, newspapers, radio, television, and now via the Internet. Organizations have become creative over the years, conducting activities and events, such as the sales of foodstuffs, car washes, raffles, casino nights, auctions, and pledge drives, evolving towards more sophisticated ways to fundraise, such as targeting solicitations, using patronage levels, crowd-funding, and tax planning, such as conservation easements, lending arrangements, and charitable gift annuities.

  • Volunteering Policy
    My Volunteering Policy The purpose of this policy is to outline the opportunities and procedures for Thomson Reuters employees to engage in community volunteering activities. By allowing all regular employees time off to volunteer, Thomson Reuters can continue to invest in its local communities, and have a meaningful impact on the world around us one community at a time. Thomson Reuters encourages employees from across the business to take part in volunteering activities with recognized charities and community organizations including accredited schools. To enable this we offer all regular full-time and part-time employees* time off with pay for at least 2 days or 16 hours per calendar year (pro-rated for part-time staff). *Part-time employees are eligible if their regularly scheduled hours are 20 or more per week. Multiply the number of hours worked in a day by two; the result is the annual number of hours eligible for paid time off to volunteer (4 hours a day x 2 = 8 hours a year). GUIDELINES FOR VOLUNTEERING Volunteering during working hours is at your manager’s discretion and subject to the needs of the business. You should obtain your manager’s approval to use paid time off to volunteer and then log your paid volunteer hours into My Community. For full details of how to apply for volunteering, read our My Volunteer FAQ in My Community. RECOGNIZED CHARITIES AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS Through this policy and our programs we support organizations that are registered as a charity not-for-profit or tax exempt organizations and accredited schools.

  • Eight Mechanisms That Drive Charitable Giving René Bekkers
    Eight Mechanisms That Drive Charitable Giving* René Bekkers and Pamala Wiepking An overwhelming body of knowledge is available on philanthropy in the social sciences. Research on philanthropy appears in journals from very different disciplines. We present an overview of research on determinants of charitable giving from all disciplines. Why Do People Give? Experiments in economics, sociology, social psychology, biology, and marketing have shown how situations can be created that encourage giving. The situations in these experiments are created by researchers, which allows for causal inferences about determinants of giving. From these experiments, conclusions can be drawn about why people give. We reviewed this literature and identify eight mechanisms as the key mechanisms that have been studied as determinants of philanthropy. They are (a) awareness of need; (b) solicitation; (c) costs and benefits; (d) altruism; (e) reputation; (f) psychological benefits; (g) values; (h) efficacy. Below we present the eight mechanisms that drive giving. The order in which the eight mechanisms are presented does not reflect the importance or causal strength of the mechanisms. Rather, the order corresponds to the chronological order in which they affect giving in the typical act of donation. For each mechanism, we present the main effect. In many cases, these main effects can be moderated (or sometimes mediated) by other factors. Moderating factors are factors that weaken or strengthen the effect of the mechanism: conditions or personal characteristics that interact with the main effect. Mechanism 1: Awareness of Need Awareness of need is a first prerequisite for philanthropy. People have to become aware of a need for support.

  • Section 501 on the Ground That All of Its Profits Are Payable to One Or More Organizations Exempt from Taxation Under Section 501
    F. IRC 502 - FEEDER ORGANIZATIONS 1. Introduction An organization described in IRC 502 does not qualify for exemption under any paragraph of IRC 501(c). The purpose of this article is to discuss some of the basic issues presented by IRC 502, to explain how it should be interpreted and applied, and to consider the amount of unrelated business activity that an exempt charitable organization may engage in. IRC 502 provides that an organization operated for the primary purpose of carrying on a trade or business for profit shall not be exempt under IRC 501 on the ground that all of its profits are payable to one or more organizations exempt under IRC 501. 2. Purpose of Feeder Provisions A brief consideration of the reasons for the enactment of IRC 502 provides some insight as to how it should be interpreted. There was growing concern, particularly after World War II, about the increasing amount of business activities carried on by exempt organizations, particularly, charitable organizations. In a series of cases involving taxable years prior to 1951, certain organizations popularly called "feeder organizations" were held exempt from federal income tax under the predecessor to IRC 501(c)(3), even though their sole activity was engaging in commercial business, and the only basis for exemption was the fact their profits were payable to specified exempt organizations. See Roche's Beach, Inc. v. Commissioner, 96 F. 2d 776 (1938); C. F. Mueller Company v. Commissioner, 190 F. 2d 120 (1951). The courts held that the exclusive purpose required by the statute was met when the only object of the organization was religious, scientific, charitable, or educational, without regard to the method of obtaining funds necessary to effectuate the objective.

  • Piton Wealth Raises Over $5,000 at Benefit Concert with Singer-Songwriter James Lanman ______
    PITON WEALTH RAISES OVER $5,000 AT BENEFIT CONCERT WITH SINGER-SONGWRITER JAMES LANMAN _____________________________________________________________________ 16 July 2019 (KENNEWICK, WA) For two decades Michelle Clary and her team have operated in wealth management in the Tri-Cities, first as an affiliate practice of Fortune 500 company Thrivent Financial and as of 2018, the CEO and founder of Piton Wealth. It isn’t difficult to see how Clary and her team have consistently ranked in the upper 1% of Thrivent practices in client satisfaction. Taking an active role in the local community and bringing people together for a good cause seems to be second nature for a company that revolves so heavily around encouraging clients to thrive both personally and professionally. In 2017, Michelle and her husband Andy opened their home to singer-songwriter James Lanman who was on a living room concert tour across the US and Canada, where he performed for a mix of their clients and friends. The following year, Michelle had the idea to leverage the draw of live music, food from local eatery, Porter’s Real BBQ, and their expansive network by turning it into a fundraiser. Teaming up with Lanman to sell tickets to his performance at their home, Piton Wealth then matches all ticket sales from the concert to raise money for the Tri-County Habitat for Humanity branch, where Andy also serves on the board. They also have a tradition of a side contest where guests bring their A-game side dishes and judges select the top 3 winners. Now in its third year, what has affectionately become known as “Kennewoodstock” between Lanman and Clary, has become quite the event.

  • 1 Understanding the Critical Section
    Understanding the Critical Section 509(a) Classification for Auxiliary Organizations Each auxiliary organization should have an IRS tax-exemption determination letter that the entity is an IRC §501(c)(3) – as a charitable organization -- and classifying it into one of the three (3) “public charity” subsets under Section §509(a).1 The §509(a) subset is where the Internal Revenue Code defines a “private foundation” by listing entities that are not private foundations. Under §509(a), an organization is presumed to be a private foundation unless it can prove that it is a public charity based upon its activities. The §509(a) subset classification typically is set when the organization applies for tax-exempt status. But reclassifications can occur with the filing of a change on the IRS Form 990, or as a result a perceived change in the role/function of the organization. Each §509(a) subset involves certain qualification “tests” and the subsets are not necessarily mutually exclusive – that is an organization might fit within any one of the three subsets. Section 509(a)(1) “publicly supported organizations” are the most common “public charities.” They typically include educational organizations, churches, hospitals, and public institutions, or organizations for the benefit of colleges and universities. The qualifying test for a 509(a)(1) organization is that it must receive a substantial part (receive at least one-third) of its support from a governmental unit or from the general public, and be organized and operated exclusively to receive, hold, invest, and administer property and make expenditures to or for the benefit of a governmental unit.

  • A More Charitable Charity: Administrative Necessity Provides an Opportunity to Promote Altruism in Charities
    University of Tennessee Law Legal Scholarship Repository: A Service of the Joel A. Katz Library UTK Law Faculty Publications 12-2016 A More Charitable Charity: Administrative Necessity Provides an Opportunity to Promote Altruism in Charities Eric Franklin Amarante Follow this and additional works at: https://ir.law.utk.edu/utklaw_facpubs Part of the Law Commons A MORE CHARITABLE CHARITY: ADMINISTRATIVE NECESSITY PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY TO PROMOTE ALTRUISM IN CHARITIES Eric Franklin* ABSTRACT The law of charities governs an absurdly wide-ranging field of organizations. A small group of antiquated statutes purport to govern a diversity of entities that range from hospitals worth millions of dollars to purely volunteer-run organizations that provide free childcare. Given the expansive nature of the law of charities, perhaps it is understandable that the law lacks a coherent guiding principle. This alone would not be problematic if not for the fact that most tax-exempt organizations do not comport with the general public’s idea of charity. An intuitive definition of charity relies upon a lack of self-regard. In other words, charity requires some level of altruism. But many charities pay lavish salaries and some are major players in the crass commercialism of the private market; such activities are far from any reasonable definition of altruism. Thus, to the extent that we expect charitable organizations to exhibit some level of altruism, the concept of charity has been stretched to a level that is almost unrecognizable. In addition to diluting the concept of charity, the over-inclusive nature of tax-exempt law resulted in an unreasonable administrative burden for the IRS.
