Lamorinda CERT Foundation is in the process of being formed as a 501(c)3 fund raising adjunct to Lamorinda CERT. The Articles of Incorporation were sent to the California Secretary of State on Thursday, April 4th, 2013. We hope to get confirmation of our incorporation soon so that we can proceed with our IRS tasx-exempt filing.

The reason to form the Foundation is so that we can accept tax-exempt donations to pay for our CERT training. Federal funding has all but disappeared.
