Looking for Foreign (non Washington) Nonprofit Corporations Forms?

If your nonprofit organization is or plans to fund-raise from the public, it may also be required to register with the Charities Program of the Secretary of State. Registration with the Charities Program is separate from and in addition to filings required under corporate law. Please visit the Charities Program website to review the registration requirements and registration forms. You may also want to review the Charitable Solicitations Act, RCW 19.09
