Well, I'm fairly sure our school is a 501(c)(3). The fact that our moderator was giving out tax exemption forms drives that suspicion home for me.

My understanding of the law is that nearly all schools qualify for 501(c)(3). However, I guess you also have to file paperwork to benefit from it. Is all that correct? If so, is there any reason a school wouldn't want to be a 501(c)(3)?

If your team is a separate organization, I could see why there could be some problems. It seems, however, that 19 is part of their school.
