Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) play a vital role in society, but navigating the tax system to secure exemptions can be a complex and time-consuming process. At True North, we specialize in helping NGOs obtain tax exemptions, enabling them to direct their resources toward their mission without unnecessary tax burdens.
