Hello,

If you've been having a little trouble visiting GrantGopher.com this past week, you are not alone! We couldn't even get in ourselves many times this past week!

Our site is being transitioned to a new platform (wow, that sounds technical!) and this caused some interruptions. We believe the entire process will be completed soon and we'll be up and running at 100%.

Small nonprofit organizations at risk of losing their tax-exempt status because they failed to file required returns for 2007, 2008 and 2009 can preserve their status by filing returns by Oct. 15, 2010, under a one-time relief program, the Internal Revenue Service announced on July 26.

The IRS has provided information on their website (www.irs.gov) along with a list of organizations that are at risk of losing their status. This listing is organized by state, and is searchable so you can quickly see if your organization is at risk.
