501c3

It's official, the Peace Exchange is official.  Yes, after much work we are a registered non-profit organization.  Today we received our final approval documents to work as a 501c3.  This is exciting news!  Thank you to our attorney, Mr. Tom Davis, at Davis Law who helped us draft our articles and meet IRS requirements.  The process has taken us 6 months, but it was worth the hard work.  Good news to all of our supporters, any gift or donations that you have made to us in the 2014 year is tax deductible.  And, as we roll forward to open new artisan centers around the globe - all forward efforts from supporters will also been seen as a charitable contribution... now, that is something to smile about.
When thinking of entering a big event this weekend, what better news to share.  Amani from the Congo is here, we are launching our new website, and we can properly celebrate the official status of being a not for profit organization.  Yay!  Happy!  Whew - hard work does pay off.
