My Nonprofit Reviews

Review for Americans For Prosperity Foundation, Arlington, VA, USA
After watching the debate between host Rachel Maddow and the organization's spokesperson, Tim Phillips, I went to Guidestar to look at their 990. As an accountant who has prepared 990's, I went loooking for the Schedule B, list of contributors >$5,000. I always have clients who have at least one donor who donates >$5,000. Why is this organization allowed to forego this schedule? It's signed by Tim Phillips, as President. I'm not sure this is exactly a false statement, however, it certainly omits information required by the IRS. How did they get away with it?
