The Future Society — Legal Structure: 501(c)(3) nonprofit (The Future Society Inc, EIN 81-3568099). Founded 2014 as student club at Harvard Kennedy School; incorporated as 501(c)(3) in 2016. Independent organization funded through philanthropic donations and service contracts with IGOs and governments.
The source confirms: (1) Founded 2014 ✓, (2) EIN 81-3568099 ✓, (3) 501(c)(3) nonprofit status ✓, (4) Originally at Harvard Kennedy School ✓, (5) Independent organization ✓, (6) Funded through philanthropic donations (grants from Mozilla Foundation, Jain Family Institute, Patrick J. McGovern Foundation, Silicon Valley Community Foundation, Minderoo Foundation mentioned) ✓. However, the source states 'Tax Exemption Received: May 1, 2017' rather than explicitly confirming incorporation as 501(c)(3) in 2016. The distinction between founding (2014) and incorporation (2016) is partially supported—the source confirms the 2014 founding and notes it later became independent, but does not explicitly state a 2016 incorporation date. The claim about 'service contracts with IGOs and governments' is not directly addressed in the source text provided.
