This kind of stuff only affects big business kind of "charities". That's why the United Way has to worry about it, and the local Jaycees or Eagles could raise a lot of money like this for a one-time deal and get the money to the right place without ever filing any paperwork. Technically, everybody should but only the bg guys have to worry about actually staying around long enough to get caught.
But once the charity gets big enough to have the look and feel of a government agency, the rules start to choke. That's why the United Way needed special dispensation.
