National Nonprofit Day commemorates this day in 1894 when legislation was signed into law that led to modern tax exempt organizations in the United States.

Without the workers, volunteers, student council, educators and enthusiasts who give their time to IHS, we wouldn't have this thriving, international organization.

Drop us a comment about how the IHS has impacted your life, work, career, or community to celebrate this important day! 🙏🏻🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏿
