re: #201 Timothy Watson

What’s the name of this charity? Has he ever filed a 990 Form with the IRS? If he’s soliciting for donations in Virginia, he’s supposed to get a permit from the state too.

His charity:
barackhobamafoundation.org

Charity Navigator:
charitynavigator.org

It is based in Alexandria, Virginia.

Why isn’t this organization rated?

This organization is not eligible to be rated by Charity Navigator because it is not required to file the full IRS Form 990. It is required to file a form 990-N. This form provides some information, but it lacks the level of data we require to issue a rating. Visit the Methodology section of our site to learn about our criteria for evaluating charities.

What does it mean that this organization isn’t rated?

It simply means that the organization doesn’t meet our criteria. A lack of a rating does not indicate a positive or negative assessment by Charity Navigator.
