  • 1.  Calling all Florida Chapters; Florida Non-Profit Registration

    Posted 04-14-2022 08:09
    Good Morning,

    I'm currently the treasurer for the Space Coast Chapter in Florida and ran into somewhat of a roadblock.

    Our previous treasurer and I went to transfer the bank account into our name and were told that we can only do so if we register as a Non-Profit with the state of Florida through their Sunbiz website. This is a somewhat involved process and requires annual reports with associated fees to maintain that business status.

    I'm wondering if any other Florida chapters have ran into this issue and if they went through the process to register with the state?

    It's not that we cannot facilitate the process, I'm just curious if there is a work around seeing as we are more of a pass through organization and didn't want to add additional work for the officers of our chapter if we don't have to.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Kevin
