I am thinking of starting a nonprofit. What steps do I need to take next? Can the Foundation help me with this?
The Spartanburg County Foundation’s Community Leadership Team has worked with many individuals and groups consider starting a nonprofit organization to meet a community need. To help you decide if this is your next step, please review Steps to Consider When Starting a Nonprofit.
After reviewing this information, you may wish to schedule a Technical Assistance Meeting with a member of our team to receive additional guidance with your plans.
Information for Vendors
Vendors providing services for the Spartanburg County Foundation must have a W-9 form on file with the Foundation before an invoice can be paid.
NEW VENDORS
- W-9 Form – please submit the first page only to accounting@spcf.org or to the specific staff member with whom you are working. Please submit only the 2024 version of the federal form.
- Please note that the address on the W-9 is the address where any checks will be mailed.
- It is the responsibility of the vendor to inform the Foundation if they need a payment mailed to any address other than that specified on the W-9.
ESTABLISHED VENDORS – those who have already received one or more payments from the Foundation
- It is the responsibility of any established vendors to inform the Foundation of any changes to their business address.
- You may be asked to complete a new (2024) version of the W-9 form. You may complete the first page of the W-9 Form and send it to accounting@spcf.org at any time.
ACH PAYMENTS
Any vendor who has submitted their current W-9 form, may also submit the ACH form to accounting@spcf.org if they would like the Foundation to process payments via ACH. Please note that you must also submit either a voided check or a verification form (from your bank) with the ACH form as part of this process. If you have questions, please contact accounting@spcf.org.
PAYMENT PROCESSING
Checks are mailed from the Foundation on Fridays based upon approved invoices received by the finance department by the previous Friday. If you have a question about the status of an invoice payment, please contact either the staff member to whom you submitted the invoice or email accounting@spcf.org.
