Why RegWatch
Nonprofit compliance spans mission, money, people and public trust.
Charitable organizations may need to follow IRS materials, state charity regulators, grant conditions, employment rules, privacy requirements and program-specific obligations. RegWatch brings selected sources into a consistent review process.
Different organization types
Public charities, foundations, membership groups and affiliated entities may have different filing and governance obligations.
Restricted funds and grants
Award terms, reporting conditions and donor restrictions can affect finance, programs, procurement and subrecipients.
Small teams, broad responsibilities
The same people may oversee governance, HR, privacy, grants and reporting, making organized ownership especially important.
Monitoring Coverage
Build a watchlist around your structure, programs and fundraising footprint.
Select federal, state and program sources relevant to your tax status, solicitations, grants, workforce, data and financial reporting.
Tax-exempt status and IRS filings
IRS exemption, annual filing, public-disclosure, unrelated-business-income and selected tax-exempt organization materials.
Charitable registration and fundraising
State charity registration, renewal, solicitation disclosure, professional fundraiser and campaign requirements.
Governance and fiduciary oversight
