360 Legal announced the launch of Beacon Nonprofit, a comprehensive online platform built to guide individuals and organizations through every stage of starting and managing a compliant, tax‑exempt nonprofit entity. Beacon Nonprofit expands the 360 Legal family of brands and is designed to simplify nonprofit formation, 501(c)(3) status, and long‑term compliance so founders can focus on impact rather than paperwork.
Beacon Nonprofit is purpose-built for nonprofit formation and assists organizations in every step along the journey, including selecting and structuring the entity, preparing documents such as articles of incorporation and bylaws, and registering with state authorities. The platform helps founders define a charitable mission that supports IRS rules while setting up the board, officers, and governance for future success.
For new nonprofits, Beacon Nonprofit combines key steps that are often confusing, like getting an Employer Identification Number (EIN), writing conflict-of-interest policies, and setting up membership structures. By organizing these steps into simple processes with clear guidance, the platform helps people avoid errors that could delay approvals or create compliance issues later.
“Beacon Nonprofit was created to remove the barriers that many founders face when turning a mission into a fully compliant nonprofit,” said Jeff Mosler, CEO of 360 Legal. “From entity formation and 501(c)(3) applications to annual filings and board governance, our goal is to give changemakers one place where they can get clear guidance and practical help at an affordable cost.”
A major focus of Beacon Nonprofit is helping organizations qualify for and maintain 501(c)(3) tax‑exempt status with the IRS, which is critical for charitable nonprofits that want eligibility for tax‑deductible donations and many grant programs. The platform supports users in determining whether the standard Form 1023, the streamlined Form 1023‑EZ, or other IRS applications are appropriate for their organization and then guiding them through the information needed for each.
Beyond launch, Beacon Nonprofit has tools and resources that assist nonprofits with ongoing compliance, annual reports, and governance document updates as organizations change. It also supports proper board practices with advice on policies, meeting minutes, officer elections, and financial oversight. By centralizing compliance timelines, required filings, and best‑practice checklists, Beacon Nonprofit helps organizations avoid lapses that can result in penalties, loss of good standing, or challenges in fundraising and partnership discussions.
Mosler added, “Nonprofit leaders should not have to choose between focusing on their communities and staying compliant with complex regulations. As part of the 360 Legal family, Beacon Nonprofit joins our other brands that aim to simplify legal and compliance work with integrated technology, clear processes, and expert guidance.”
