RELATING TO SOLICITATION OF FUNDS FROM THE PUBLIC.
What changed between versions
Added clear definitions for 'platform charity' and 'charitable fundraising platform' to distinguish between organizations that facilitate online fundraising and those that directly solicit donations.
Requires platform charities to provide five specific disclosures to donors before completing donations, including information about tax deductibility, processing fees, and timeframes for fund distribution.
Mandates written consent from recipient charitable organizations before platform charities can use their names in fundraising solicitations.
Eliminated duplicate registration and reporting requirements between charitable fundraising platforms and platform charities to reduce administrative burden.
Added vicarious liability provisions where platform charities and charitable fundraising platforms are jointly responsible for each other's misuse of donated funds.
Set the effective date to January 1, 3000, indicating this is a placeholder bill awaiting final legislative action.
