The organization’s corporate and tax-exempt status must also be in good standing. Lastly, the proposed rulemaking clarifies that the Attorney General may impose penalties under Government Code section 12591.1 if a person or entity subject to the Supervision of Trustees and Fundraisers for Charitable Purposes Act (Gov. Code, § 12580 et seq.) submits false or misleading information, or fails to provide required information, in either the registration form or the raffle report.
