Organization Classification

The IRS classifies organizations according to the National Taxonomy of Exempt Entities (NTEE) system. The NTEE system helps the IRS assign a 3-character code to each organization to describe the organization's activities.

The Burton Family Foundation's NTEE code is T11. The "T" tells us that the organization is classified along with Philanthropy, Voluntarism & Grantmaking Foundations. The "11" tells us that the organization is a Single Organization Support. The NTEE describes Single Organization Support as organizations existing as a fund-raising entity for a single institution within the Philanthropy, Voluntarism & Grantmaking Foundations major group area.

Every organization is also governed by a specific section of the Internal Revenue Code. The most common type is a 501(c)(3) organization. However, there are actually 29 different types of organizations that are identified by the Internal Revenue Code. This organization happens to be a 501(c)(3) organization. The IRS describes these organizations as those engaged in Religious, Educational, Charitable, Scientific, Literary, Public Safety, Amateur Sports, or Prevention of Cruelty to Children or Animals work.

Perhaps the most accurate way to get a sense of what the organization hopes to achieve is by looking at its mission. The mission of the Burton Family Foundation is to perform the functions of, or to carry out the purposes of the Arizona Community Foundation, an AZ nonprofit corporation, so long as the Arizona Community Foundation, Inc. remains a qualified organization.
