Is my contribution tax deductible at this time?

The Bike IM Foundation was formed on December 12, 2013, as a Nebraska nonprofit corporation and filed for status as an exempt IRS 501(c ) (3) organization on March 13, 2014. At this time our 501c3 application is still in processing with the IRS. It is our intent to attain tax exempt status so that your donations may be tax deductible. We are, however, per our legal and tax counsel, able to accept donations at this time in anticipation of the likely acceptance of our IRS tax exempt classification.

What percentage of your donations go to recipients of your cause?

Here at Bike Safe IM Foundation, we pride ourselves on utilizing funds to the maximum benefit.  At this time we do not pay staffers and only have minimal expenses relating to marketing.  We do not have any overhead as our office expenses are covered by the Director of the Foundation.  At this time, 100% of expenses have been out of pocket by staff and board members.  In the long-term, we hope to maintain a utilization rate of 75% of donations directly to our cause of education and victim assistance.
