FAQ
Does my tax-exempt organization need to submit changes in its bylaws to the IRS? The Internal Revenue Code 501(c) (3) requires that any tax-exempt organization report changes in bylaws and other governing documents to the IRS every year using IRS Form 990.
The board shall consist of not less than five directors, elected by and from the members, unless the number of members is less than five, in which case, the number of directors may equal the number of members.
Your bylaws are not an employee handbook or policy manual designed to run the day-to-day operations of your nonprofit organization. For example, employee absences, vacation policies, and no-smoking policies have no place in an organization's bylaws.
An Ohio nonprofit needs a board of directors to oversee operations. The State of Ohio requires nonprofits to have at least three directors on the board. The nonprofit board positions of president, secretary, and treasurer must be filled, but do not need to be held by directors.
An LLC in Ohio can be for a profit or nonprofit purpose.
