While a nonprofit corporation is a state-level designation, the 501(c)(3) status is a federal, nationwide designation awarded by the IRS. If a group has 501(c)(3) status, then it is exempt from federal income tax, which often also means you dont need to pay state income taxes either.
Charity and charity status The purpose of your organisation must be exclusively charitable. The charitys trustees must carry out its charitys purposes for public benefit. Read the Charity Commissions guidance on What Makes a Charity
Qualified organizations include nonprofit groups that are religious, charitable, educational, scientific, or literary in purpose, or that work to prevent cruelty to children or animals. You will find descriptions of these organizations under Organizations That Qualify To Receive Deductible Contributions.
Organizations that are organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, testing for public safety, literary, educational or other specified purposes.
Charities can only have purposes the law recognises as being charitable - they cant have a mix of charitable and non-charitable purposes. Charities must be independent - a charity can work with other organisations but must make independent decisions about how it carries out its charitable purposes.
