[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, perhaps the short answer to your question is that tax-exempt status is not based on geography, but rather on the character of an organization's operations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/501%28c%29 I suspect there are plenty of tax-exempt entities that are not designed to benefit (solely or even partly) their local communities. That's just not the policy goal of tax-exempt status.[/quote] The tax-exempt status you've cited refers to *federal* exemption. Some states use that definition as well, but not all. The broader point is that the "goal of tax-exempt status" is whatever the legislative jurisdiction says it is. It's like those who say "marriage is a man and a woman". In other words, begging the question.[/quote]
