FUND-RAISING COUNSEL APPLICATION FOR REGISTRATION
Pursuant to Ark. Code Ann. § 4-28-401 et seq., fund-raising counsel is a person or entity, who for
a flat fixed fee or fixed hourly rate, under a written agreement, plans, conducts, manages, carries
on, advises, or acts as a consultant, whether directly or indirectly, in connection with soliciting
contributions for, or on behalf of, any charitable organization, whether directly or indirectly, in
connection with soliciting contributions for, or on behalf of, any charitable organization, but who
actually solicits no contributions as a part of the service. Fund-raising counsel does not receive
or control funds or assets solicited for charitable purposes nor does counsel procure or employ
any compensated person to do so. No lawyer, investment counselor, or banker who advises a person
to make a contribution shall be deemed, as a result of that advice, to be a fund-raising counsel. A
bona fide salaried officer or employee of a registered or exempt charitable organization shall not
be deemed to be a fundraising counsel. Fund-raising counsel must properly register with the Office
of the Attorney General, prior to commencing performance pursuant to the contract. Registration as
fund-raising counsel in the State of Arkansas must be renewed on an annual basis. Once
registration is effective, it remains so for one (1) calendar year. This form should be used for initial
registration, renewals, and information changes. IF THERE IS ANY CHANGE IN CONTACT
INFORMATION PLEASE INFORM OUR OFFICE IMMEDIATELY.
