Editor’s note: Dorothy Day staunchly opposed tax-exempt status for the Catholic Worker (see “We Go On Record: CW Refuses Tax Exemption“) on the grounds that the works of mercy should be performed on a personal level, at a personal sacrifice. Even so, many Catholic Worker communities do seek tax-exempt status for one reason or another. In keeping with the CW’s decentralized approach, we’re posting this generous offer for those communities that might make good use of Michael’s expertise, whether in the context of tax-exempt status or not.
