Marine Corps League Programs
Non Profit Status
The individual detachments of the Marine Corps League take on a life of their own. Once incorporated under the umbrella of the Congressionally Chartered National Marine Corps League 501 (C)(3) status, they become a full functioning 501 (C)(4)-1 Veteran Non-Profit Organization. Every incorporated detachment thereof has the same tax exemptions and deductibility status as parent 501 (C)(3) charitable organization.
