The West Virginia Charitable Organizations Division registers
and regulates charitable organizations, the professional solicitors, and the professional
fund-raising counsels with whom they contract to assist in raising funds from the public.
The purposes of the division are to:
- Protect the people of the state by requiring full public
disclosure by persons and organizations who solicit funds from the public; and
- Prevent deceptive and dishonest statements and conduct in
the solicitation and reporting of such funds in the name of charity.
Required disclosure includes the purposes for which such
funds are solicited and how they are actually used.
For any complaints relating to charities, please complete the
complaint form.
