SALVI\u2019s mission is to propagate communicative approaches to Latin language acquisition, with a particular focus on the first years of language study, i.e. the period during which the basic tenets of grammar are learned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On February 6, 1997, the State of California recognized SALVI as a not-for-profit public benefit educational and literary corporation, granting it tax-exempt public charity status in California under section 23701d of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. Federal tax-exempt status under section 501c(3) of the Internal Revenue Code was granted one year later on February 6, 1998, making SALVI a full-fledged 501c(3) public charity. Any contributions made to its activities are deductible from the donor\u2019s Federal and California Income taxes, where such taxes apply. SALVI&#8217;s tax-exempt status was reconfirmed by the State of California on Dec. 4, 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color:#651e17\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><strong>SALVI is officially registered with the IRS and other administrative organizations as&nbsp;the <em>North American Institute for Living Latin Studies<\/em>. <br>SALVI is a qualified&nbsp;<span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">501(c)(3)&nbsp;<\/span>charitable entity: <\/strong><\/span><strong><br><span>BRIDGE # 5714026361<\/span><br><span>EIN 95-4601583<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No part of the assets of SALVI, as a public benefit corporation, can ever inure to the benefit of any private individual.
