Transparency
The Neon Law Foundation is a Nevada nonprofit corporation recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. We publish here the documents the law requires us to make public — and, going further, the governance records we choose to share.
Required public disclosures
Federal law (Internal Revenue Code §6104(d)) requires a 501(c)(3) to make these available for public inspection. Posting them here also satisfies that duty for anyone who asks.
- IRS determination letter (PDF) — the letter recognizing the Foundation's 501(c)(3) status.
- Exemption application (IRS Form 1023) and supporting documents — available on request through the contact page while we prepare the filing for publication here.
- Annual returns (IRS Form 990-series) — the three most recent returns will be posted here once filed.
Published voluntarily
The documents below are not required to be public. The Foundation publishes them because transparency about how it governs itself is part of the mission.
- Bylaws — The bylaws of the Neon Law Foundation — how its board and officers govern the organization.
- Conflict of Interest Policy — The Neon Law Foundation's conflict of interest policy for its directors and officers.
The Foundation also publishes the standard agreements it uses to engage its team — an at-will employment agreement and an independent-contractor agreement — as open Notations any nonprofit can reuse.
Board meeting minutes
Minutes of the Foundation's regular quarterly board meetings. Approved minutes are published as they are finalized.
