Nonprofit Basics: Private Foundation Minimum Distribution Requirements

February 13, 2023 Podcast
EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource

Welcome to EO Radio Show – Your Nonprofit Legal Resource. Private foundations are required to spend a minimum amount each year for charitable purposes, which is known in the industry as the minimum distribution requirement. Like all other private foundation rules, there are a lot of exceptions and special rules. I’m not going to cover all the rules exhaustively in this episode, but listen in for an overview of the rules and resources for learning more about the topic.
