The Chrome Divas are a non-profit organization. What does this mean? A 501(c)(7) corporation is a "social club” that's granted nonprofit status by the IRS, a special designation that exempts it from some federal taxes. By law, a 501(c)(7) "social club” must be organized for "pleasure, recreation and other similar non-profitable purposes." As with all 501(c) corporations, a 501(c)(7) "social club” cannot generate profits for its owners. The organization must derive at least 65 percent of its gross income from membership dues. We are not a charity organization and do not accept donations.
