This study examines the strengths and weakness often associated with forming church-sponsored 501c3 (tax-exempt) corporations. Given the plethora of social ills existing in African American communities in particular and urban centers in general, churches must engage in outreach ministries to effectuate change. The 501c3 status allows church ownership of a program while receiving otherwise unavailable state, corporate, and private tax-deductible money. Board structure is critical. Both entities, the church and the state, must have their individual criteria met. Housing, youth programming, and literacy are just some of the many areas which lend themselves to church-sponsored 501c3 corporations. This study examines four churches with 501c3 corporations and summarizes the learnings from each.
