👀 Must Read: New regulatory requirements affecting your organization
|
California’s AB488, a law regulating online fundraising platforms, came into force on January 1, 2023 and requires FreeWill to conduct daily checks of the Franchise Tax Board, Attorney General of California, and Internal Revenue Service blocklists. Beginning January 1, 2024, if your nonprofit organization is not in good standing and appears on any of these governmental agency blocklists, your organization will lose access to FreeWill’s tools until the matter is resolved.
Note that this requirement is applicable to all US charities, not just those headquartered in California. To help prevent this from happening, we suggest you frequently check your status with these agencies to ensure you don’t have any paperwork coming due.
For more information, please read this full letter from our General Counsel.

🐶 A conversation with SPCA International on how a Featureship helped them grow their legacy giving program
|
Did you know that January has the second highest web traffic on FreeWill.com, behind only Make-A-Will Month in August? Now is a great time to pursue opportunities to get your organization's name front and center with a Featureship, which is a way for organizations to be featured to will-makers across the country as they are making choices about how to create their legacy.
In case you missed it, we hosted an exclusive partner session with fellow partner, Julia Masucci of SPCA International, in conversation with our Co-CEO Patrick Schmitt, to discuss how the FreeWill Featureship has helped SPCA International grow their legacy giving program, and build their pipeline of donors in key demographics.
Watch (or listen!) to their conversation here and book time with our Account Management team if you are interested in learning more about how a FreeWill Featureship can help boost your legacy commitments and expand your donor base.
