Private Operating Foundations: Membership Dues Structure

Endowed private foundations that have been designed by the IRS as a "private operating foundation" calculate membership dues based on their total net assets instead of their grantmaking.

NOTE: If your organization is a private operating foundation but isn't endowed (i.e., receives and spends funds within the same fiscal year), please contact the Member Engagement team so we can work with you to determine the appropriate dues schedule.
