Incorporation and Tax Exemption

Webinar: Maj. Gen. Joseph G. Lynch, USAF (Ret), General Counsel, MOAA, offers specialized training for those wishing to learn more about the procedures for obtaining exemption recognition, annual filing requirements and other pertinent information regarding the tax status for your affiliate organization.  

Liability Insurance

  • This plan provides coverage for lawsuits resulting from bodily injury and property damage at Chapter-sponsored activities. If your Chapter typically rents space when it needs to gather for a meeting or special event, you may have discovered the owner of the property requires “special event” insurance. This coverage is typically very expensive to buy or doesn’t fully protect you. That’s why this plan was developed exclusively for MOAA Chapters!
