Challenges and Solutions

Challenge: Nonprofit Status

As an LLC, GVAS cannot offer tax benefits to donors, limiting contributions from those seeking deductions.

Solution: Sponsorship Opportunities

GVAS offers sponsorship opportunities for events like the Alumni Golf Outing, allowing nonprofits like the Grand Valley Football Alumni Association to sponsor and provide tax benefits to donors, maximizing support for our athletes.
