From this article you will learn how to open a charitable foundation and what is the main idea of such a business. We will tell you about all the legal intricacies, list required documents. Consider important points registration and further activities of the organization.
What is a charitable foundation
A charitable foundation is a non-profit organization that raises money for a specific project. It should have a clear focus of work: helping children, the disabled, World War II veterans, cancer patients, or other groups of people in need of help.
The activities of the organization are carried out not to generate income, but to provide assistance to specific social groups. Even if there is a profit, then no more than 20% of the total amount of fees: 80% goes to charity.
The law does not prohibit charitable foundations from engaging in entrepreneurial activity for the purpose of making a profit. The main thing is to register with the Federal Tax Service and keep separate records of income.
If the organization will only collect money, then no more than 20% of the total amount of fees can be allocated for administrative expenses.
“You need to understand that you can not help everyone at once. Therefore, it is advisable to open a charitable foundation focused on a specific social group of people. In the future, as the organization develops, it is possible to expand the scope of activities.
Important steps to start a charitable foundation
If you decide to open a charitable foundation and do a noble cause, then you need to know what stages you will have to go through.
Here are the important steps to take.
- Determination of the direction of the organization's activities: assistance to the disabled, orphans, refugees, single mothers or other social groups.
- Choice of name, slogan.
- Development, adoption of the Charter.
- Search for volunteers, employees to help in the implementation of the project.
- Search for people, companies for financial support and donations.
- Development and launch of the official website. Creation and advertising of groups or communities in in social networks.
Legal points to be aware of
To avoid misunderstandings in the future, you should clarify all the legal details of registering a fund in advance.
To begin with, it is worth recalling that such organizations are non-profit and are not created for profit - only to provide social assistance.
A foreign citizen, a stateless person and a citizen can open a charitable foundation Russian Federation(Civil Code of the Russian Federation, clause 1, article 118), as well as an individual or legal entity.
The activities of a charitable foundation should be regulated by the Charter, in accordance with Art. 49 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.
The Federal Law "On Charity" allows for the possibility of doing business, but with a limitation: 80% for charity, 20% profit.
"A charitable foundation is created to provide social assistance to a certain group of citizens, and not to make a profit from its activities."
What documents need to be collected
For registration you will need:
- Notarized application form PH0001
- Application to the Ministry of Justice for registration
- Constituent documentation: approved Charter in 3 copies
- Lease agreement or documents for the premises
- The presence of the legal and actual address of the organization
- State duty payment receipt
It is necessary to collect documents for registration after renting or buying office space. Because the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation will require a contract, legal and actual address. Without this, permission will be denied.
Tax nuances
After the approval of the constituent documents, the organization must be registered with the tax authorities. The Federal Tax Service carries out such a procedure within a week: registers, issues a TIN, state registration number and an extract from the state register.
Also, the tax office must issue a power of attorney. After that, choose the appropriate bank and open current accounts.
“Charitable contributions are not included in the tax base. Taxes are paid only on profits: that is, from 20% of the total contributions.
For the work of the organization, it is desirable to hire an experienced accountant who can competently keep accounts and eliminate troubles with the tax service.
If the fund is engaged in entrepreneurial activities, then when registering with the Federal Tax Service, you need to choose the USN taxation system: 6% (total income) or 15% (including expenses).
In addition to the tax service, you will need to visit the PFRF and the social insurance fund.
Charitable organizations have a number of concessions. For example, it is allowed to submit zero reporting to both the Federal Tax Service and the pension fund.
Choice of premises for a charitable foundation
When choosing a room, it is worth remembering that the cost of rent should be minimal. A small office of about 10-30 m2 will be enough for the Foundation.
No need to look for a place in the city center or sleeping areas. In the first case, the rental price will be high, in the second, it will be difficult to find an organization. Therefore, it is worth sticking to the golden mean with good transport links: not far from the center, but not on the outskirts of the city.
When choosing a room, attention should be paid to the presence of an electrical network, water supply, sewerage and a heating system. This is necessary for the comfortable work of employees and the reception of guests.
When it comes to office design, it is best to stick to a neutral style in pastel colors. Do not resort to high-tech and modern interior. Volunteers and visitors should feel comfortable and at ease.
“It is possible to resolve the issue of providing premises for an office in the local authorities. To do this, it is enough to show how important charity is in a particular region. This will help save money on rent.”
Recruitment of staff and volunteers
For the normal operation of the charitable foundation, you will need:
- Social workers to interact with other foundations and volunteer organizations.
- Consultant for training staff and advising people over the phone on how to get social assistance.
- Secretary for handling mail, phone calls.
- Accountant for bookkeeping.
- Marketer to conduct promotions and draw public attention to the organization.
- Volunteers to work with a specific group of people in need of help.
When selecting candidates, you should pay attention to:
- Competence.
- Experience in philanthropy.
- specialty and education.
- Sociability.
You can create your own selection criteria. You just need to remember that working, for example, with orphans and disabled children is two different tasks. Therefore, specialists should be selected based on the direction of the fund's activities.
“If you recruit experienced and motivated people who are ready to work for free, then employees will not need to pay a salary. Many foundations work this way - they provide services free of charge.”
Charity donation site
To create an official website, you need:
- Choose hosting. It is better to give preference to paid ones, as they work stably and do not bother with failures.
- Select a domain. The domain name (website address) should preferably be in the form of the fund's name.
- Select CMS, template. You can choose free Wordpress and a template for it.
- Fill pages with information. The site should contain a detailed description of the activity, contacts, details, legal information, etc.
To save time, the site can be ordered from a web studio or from a private web developer.
To receive donations from the Internet, you need to connect a payment aggregator to the site. A good option is Yandex.Checkout, but other systems can be considered.
“After launching the site, you need to take care of its promotion, create a group or community on social networks, where you can also accept donations.”
What difficulties can you face
Opening a charitable foundation in the CIS is easy. But still there are some difficulties.
- Charitable foundations exist through voluntary contributions, which makes financial position organizations are unstable.
- Not in every region you can find experienced, motivated employees who are ready to donate their time and energy to charity for free.
- All movements of money from the fund are carried out under the supervision of local authorities. Attention to such organizations increased. At the same time, the opinion of the fund and local managers may not coincide, which causes additional difficulties.
To avoid these problems, you need to find reliable companies that are ready to invest in the fund, carefully select candidates for volunteers and employees, and also immediately establish contact with local authorities authorities.
Name a charitable foundation profitable business it is forbidden. Even the word "business" is inappropriate here. This is just an organization that receives money and donates it to help people or even animals in need.
We are opening a new rubric "Law public associations”, it will cover the creation and activities of public associations, non-profit organizations. At the same time, it is planned to touch upon not only purely legal issues, but also the practical side of the activities of NGOs from the point of view of experts constantly involved in non-commercial projects.
We will start by answering a question that came to our editorial office: “how can a school create a charitable fund that receives funds from the parents of students, and then they are spent on the needs of the school?”
Starting a non-profit organization (NPO) is not an easy task. Few people managed to register an NPO the first time and without correcting the remarks. The fact is that when creating a commercial organization, for example, a company with limited liability, the tax authority does not check founding documents for compliance with the law, and in the case of registration of an NPO, to which the foundation belongs, the registration authority conducts a serious examination of all submitted documents, especially the charter. In this article, we will tell you how to create a fund and, most importantly, how to draw up registration documents with the highest probability of their acceptance by the registration authority.
Who registers non-profit organizations?
Most non-profit organizations, including foundations, are registered by the territorial body of the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation (for the subject of the Federation).
How many founders are required to register?
According to the law, one person is enough to register a fund. It is clear that the fewer founders, the less hassle with filling out forms of documents, holding founding meetings, etc. The status of the founder itself does not affect anything, the status of the founder in the fund loses any legal meaning immediately after registration (as opposed to an institution). However, from the organizational point of view for the future activities of the fund, it is very important that the fund be created not by one person, but by several. Moreover, it is best that these are high-status people, not from the school administration (not the school principal, not the head teacher), but one of the parents holding a high position (director large enterprise, famous artist, deputy, etc.). Of course, there are cases when a foundation was established by one person, for example, the Alena Popova Foundation (it was created by the mother of a sick girl to raise funds for her treatment), but in the case of an initiative to create a foundation from an organization (in our case, a school), and not a private person, it is better of course, to gather a few people (for example, five, and then the number may increase, but already as part of the governing bodies).
What documents need to be provided?
According to Art. 13.1. Federal Law of January 12, 1996 No. 7-FZ “On Non-Commercial Organizations” (hereinafter referred to as the Federal Law “On Non-Commercial Organizations”), the following documents will be required to register a fund:
1) Application in the form РН0001 (approved by Government Decree No. 212 dated April 15, 2006). The application is signed by the applicant, it may be the future head of the fund or one of its founders. Print the application with a receipt. It is better to make two copies. One of them must be certified by a notary, the other is simply signed. To the notary, the applicant must appear personally to the notary. The applicant may be one of the founders or the future head of the fund;
2) Charter in triplicate;
3) Decision on the establishment of a non-profit organization and on the approval of its constituent documents, indicating the composition of the elected (appointed) bodies in two copies;
4) Information about the founders in two copies (drawn up in free form, in this document full name, passport details, place of registration, contact details of the founders are indicated, it is desirable to sign by all the founders);
5) Receipt of payment of the state fee (it is also desirable to make a copy of it);
6) Information about the address (location) of the permanent body of the non-profit organization, at which communication is carried out with the non-profit organization commercial organization(also a free-form document, it must indicate the address where you can contact the head of the fund, most likely it will be the same as legal address). It is important to note that you can register a charitable organization at the address of the place of residence of a citizen (founder, chairman), this is directly stated in Art. 9 of the Federal Law of August 11, 1995 No. 135-FZ "On charitable activities and charitable organizations" (hereinafter - the Federal Law "On charitable activities");
7) when using in the name of a non-profit organization the name of a citizen, symbols protected by the legislation of the Russian Federation on the protection of intellectual property or copyright, as well as full name other legal entity as part of their own name - documents confirming the authority to use them;
8) an extract from the register of foreign legal entities of the respective country of origin or other equivalent legal force a document confirming the legal status of the founder - a foreign person.
How to write a charter to be accepted by the Ministry of Justice?
But this is the most difficult thing in registering an NGO. The Ministry of Justice checks the charter for compliance with the law, therefore, even provisions taken from the law, but rephrased, this body can force them to redo it. But most of all nitpicking happens to the goals and activities, the registration authority loves to decide what the organization can do and what not.
So, what should be in the charter:
1. The name of the non-profit organization, containing an indication of the nature of its activities and legal form. The full and abbreviated name is indicated. The organizational and legal form in this case is a charitable foundation.
2. Location of the non-profit organization. The legal address is indicated.
3. Information about branches and representative offices(if any are planned to be established during registration).
4. The subject and goals of the activity. Usually, the goals of the activity are indicated first (2-3 goals of a general nature, no more need for less to complain about), then the types of activities that the organization has the right to engage in to achieve the goals are indicated. Since we are creating a charitable foundation, just in this section there should be an indication of this in the purposes and types of activities (according to the Federal Law "On charitable activities"). It's better to choose as many as possible various kinds activities that the organization will be engaged in in the future (both on a gratuitous basis and for a fee), because otherwise, then you will have to make changes to the charter if something is missing. The phrase “and other types of activities that do not contradict the law” is very rarely included in the Charter by the Ministry of Justice.
5. Activity management procedure. In Art. 29 of the Federal Law "On non-profit organizations" states that the procedure for managing the fund is determined by its charter. But the law still has one mandatory requirement to the composition of the fund. The foundation must have a board of trustees. It is the body of the fund and supervises the activities of the fund, the adoption of decisions by other bodies of the fund and ensuring their implementation, the use of the fund's resources, and the fund's compliance with the law. It is imperative to indicate the procedure for the formation of the board of trustees (the law does not specify anything on this subject, so here you can choose the most convenient procedure, for example, the formation of the board of trustees by the supreme body on the recommendation of the chairman). The powers of the Board of Trustees are specified in paragraph 3 of Art. 7: supervises the activities of the fund, the adoption of decisions by other bodies of the fund and ensuring their implementation, the use of the fund's resources, the fund's compliance with the law
In practice, as a rule, the following governing bodies are formed:
1. The supreme management body is the board of the fund with the chairman of the board (operational management body),
2. Executive body (for example, Executive Director or foundation president)
3. Board of Trustees ( supervisory authority, formed by the board).
4. Auditor (Audit Commission)
The powers of the supreme body are indicated in paragraph 3 of Art. 29 of the Federal Law "On non-profit organizations":
Changing the charter of a non-profit organization;
Determination of priority areas of activity of a non-profit organization, principles for the formation and use of its property;
Education executive bodies non-profit organization and early termination of their powers;
Statement annual report and annual balance sheet;
Statement financial plan non-profit organization and making changes to it;
Creation of branches and opening of representative offices of a non-profit organization;
Participation in other organizations;
In the same article, you can take the order of decision-making.
Also in Art. 10 of the Federal Law "On charitable activities" contains additional powers:
Approval of charitable programs;
Approval of the annual plan, budget of the charitable organization and its annual report;
The executive body of a non-profit organization may be collegiate and (or) sole, appointed by the board. He carries out the day-to-day management of the activities of the non-profit organization and is accountable to the highest governing body of the non-profit organization. For convenience, a model with sole body, but it can also be collegial - the executive directorate. The charter must specify the term of his powers and the procedure for election (this should be in the powers of the supreme governing body).
It is also necessary to provide for the position of an auditor (audit committee), who will exercise control over the financial and economic activities of the fund.
6. Andsources of formation of property of a non-profit organization. The charter of an NGO is not a place for creativity, so it is better to take everything verbatim from the law. The sources of property formation are listed in paragraph 1 of Art. 26 of the Federal Law "On non-profit organizations" and Art. 15 of the Federal Law "On charitable activities":
Contributions of the founders of a charitable organization;
Membership fees (for membership-based charities);
Charitable donations, including those of a targeted nature (charitable grants), provided by citizens and legal entities in cash or in kind;
Income from non-operating transactions, including income from securities;
Receipts from activities to attract resources (carrying out campaigns to attract philanthropists and volunteers, including organizing entertainment, cultural, sports and other mass events, conducting campaigns to collect charitable donations, holding lotteries and auctions in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation, selling property and donations, received from philanthropists, in accordance with their wishes);
Income from business activities permitted by law;
income from the activities of economic companies established by a charitable organization;
Volunteer work;
Other sources not prohibited by law.
There should be no membership fees, because. a foundation is an organization without membership.
7. The procedure for amending the constituent documents of a non-profit organization. This function should be attributed to the powers of the supreme governing body. If it is not possible to change the charter of the fund, then it can be changed only in judicial order(Section 4, Article 14).
8. Procedure for the use of property in the event of liquidation of a non-profit organization. Again, the procedure is best taken from the law and formulated as follows: upon liquidation of the fund, the property remaining after the satisfaction of creditors' claims is directed in accordance with the charter of the fund for the purposes for which it was created, and (or) for charitable purposes (paragraph 1 article 20).
It must be said that the entire procedure outlined is equally suitable not only for the creation of a school fund, but also for any fund (including a charitable one as its subspecies).
In conclusion, it should be noted that the State Duma adopted in the first reading the draft Federal Law No. 47538-6, which introduces significant changes to the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. This includes non-profit organizations. A closed list of such organizations is established, the number of organizational and legal forms is significantly narrowed. The Foundation remains as a separate organizational and legal form of the NPO, but is also undergoing some changes. Thus, the Board of Trustees disappears from the governing bodies. All that remains is the highest collegial governing body, the sole manager and (optionally) the board. Approximately new edition The Civil Code of the Russian Federation will be adopted by the end of 2012.
Patronage by successful and wealthy people is a very common thing. It is easier to do good deeds together, so philanthropy has taken an organized form in the form of foundations.

Non-profit foundations also have a division. Public organizations are supported by state and public structures(their share exceeds a third of the total amount of the fund) and have a large number of members. And private funds belong to entrepreneurs and the share of state participation in it is small (less than a third).
Private foundations can conduct various charitable activities. Operational organizations implement specific programs aimed at the corresponding result.
For example, they help in the rehabilitation of operated cancer patients or carry out measures to reduce unemployment.
Non-operational funds are engaged only in raising funds, which are then used to address the necessary issues. They are a source of funding for charitable organizations and institutions.

How to open a charitable foundation and make it successful?
Before embarking on the steps to open your own foundation, think about the following points: scope, likely name, charter of the foundation, search for volunteers and patrons, advertising campaign and site creation. Do not rush into an official launch until you have found at least two sources for gratuitous funding.
Premises for a charitable organization
By law, a charitable foundation may be located in own premises or filmed.
The situation is more complicated with the operational fund, which are subject to increased requirements regarding this paragraph. For example, for various rehabilitation programs there should be additional areas (for classes for children with disabilities within the framework of targeted classes).
This issue can be resolved "with the whole world" by asking for help from the administration of the settlement or municipal institutions. Often they are ready to give their area for good deeds for certain hours.

Fund Staff
Depending on the direction of the fund, various specialists may be needed:
- volunteers who are not on the official staff, but help on a disinterested basis;
- lawyers;
- specialists accepting incoming applications;
- "purchasers" responsible for the purchase of the necessary resources;
- sponsored professionals.

The desire to help people who need something is always a commendable and commendable impulse. There are people who have developed this desire so strongly that they create special organizations for this, called charitable foundations. Such funds are classified as non-profit organizations, that is, their main goal is not making money.
It is much easier to create a charitable foundation than to manage it. The very procedure for registering such an organization should not be difficult. However, after that, the owner of a newly created charitable foundation may face difficulties of varying complexity. After all, in order for the fund to raise funds and really help people in need, it is necessary to constantly work on it.
How charitable foundations work
A charitable foundation is an organization with the status of a legal entity. Charitable foundations work according to the scheme "received voluntary donations - sent them to help those in need." However, each fund also needs to exist for something. In this regard, the charitable foundation has the right to use a certain part of the amount of donations (usually from 20% to 30%, depending on the legislation of each country) for its own personal needs, that is, for the maintenance of the foundation. For example, on wages employees, purchase necessary equipment, paying for the phone and the Internet, renting a room, and so on.
In addition, charitable foundations, according to the legislation of many countries, have good tax benefits, and sometimes they are completely exempt from taxes. Thus, countries encourage the creation of charitable organizations and create all the conditions for them to exist.
Charitable foundations, like other organizations, including commercial ones, must regularly submit reports on the work carried out to the appropriate government agency, which describes how much and for what purposes the funds received were spent.
Business plan for a charitable foundation
Here are some figures regarding the costs of opening a charitable foundation. All data are averages and may vary depending on specific conditions.
1. Registration of the fund - 400 dollars.
2. Opening a bank account - $80.
3. Notary services - from 30 dollars.
4. Legal advice - from $40.
5. Payment of various fees and duties - about 100 dollars.
How to start a charitable organization
The very first step you should take is to sit down and think carefully: do you need a charitable foundation? If a person decides to work in a charitable field, he will not be able to do it correctly and effectively if he does not let this problem pass through himself. This means the problem for which he wants to do charity work - it can be helping sick children, people with disabilities, homeless animals. There are also funds of a more optimistic orientation, for example, assistance in the development of children's creativity or popularization healthy lifestyle life and sports.
In any case, without a deep understanding of the problem, it will be impossible to achieve good results in charitable activities. It happens that a person is driven by a momentary emotional impulse that will pass in a day, week or month. To test whether your aspirations to charity are true, try to work in one of the existing such organizations first. If you don't burn out after a while, then maybe you really are made to do good.
The principles of managing a charitable foundation are in many ways similar to the principles of managing any commercial organization. It is also important here to explore the competition market and find your own competitive advantage. It is better to select employees not only on the basis of the applicant's great desire to help people, but also taking into account his abilities and skills. It is best if your employees already have experience in the charitable field, and know the principles of communication both with philanthropists (those who donate money) and with people who turn to the foundation for help.
In any business, it is important to have a strategy further action. Charitable organizations are no exception. Planning activities is best done by a qualified person who knows a lot about strategic management. Establishing public relations, which is one of the main tasks in the management of the fund, is also not an easy task. This is a rather long process that requires daily work.
When can you achieve some success at the level of the city, and then the country, think about the possibilities of entering the international market. As a rule, foreign companies and businessmen are more willing to invest in funds that help children in matters of their health.
Have you noticed that now most of the charitable foundations are organized famous people? A fund headed by a person with a name has a much better chance of success than a fund opened by a completely unknown "Ivan Ivanov". Therefore, if you have not yet promoted yourself so that the general public recognizes you by face and name, then managing the fund and attracting the attention of philanthropists to it will be a little more difficult.
Documents required to open
To register a charitable foundation, the following is required:
1. Provide the state body with the name of the charitable foundation; description of the activities in which he intends to engage.
2. Register in the unified state register.
3. Become registered with the tax office.
4. Get your organization's bank details and open a bank account.
5. Register with the statistics agency.
6. Provide information about the management of the fund (who is the director, deputies, accountant).
7. Draw up and approve the charter of the organization. It is approved at the meeting of the founders.
How to get attention for your charitable foundation?
If you have enough knowledge and creative thinking to come up with non-standard solutions to standard problems, very good. Social problems have always been and will be present in any society, and by finding ways to solve them that no one has applied before you, you will clearly interest the public in your organization.
Those who donate hundreds of thousands and even millions of dollars to help treat seriously ill patients (as an example), do this not always just to help. Of course, for conscientious people, it is this goal that should be the main one. However, often good philanthropist oligarchs do not want to remain in the shadows. They want the public to know that they are the ones who donated their hard earned money to help those in need. Therefore, in order to attract philanthropists, offer them, so to speak, "advertising" of their good intentions. Write about it in the press, and if the organization's budget allows, advertise on television.
In this way, you will be able to increase the popularity of your foundation both among those people who need help, and among those who can provide this help.
