Documentation needed for screening: IRS form 501(c)(3), supporting material outlining PSAs objectives and brochure and/or accurate background information on the organization. A tax exemption certificate is unacceptable.

PSAs making direct appeals for financial contributions are not accepted.

Localized PSAs are preferred.
