Private Organizations
Private Organizations (POs) are self-sustaining special interest groups, set up by individuals acting exclusively outside the scope of any official capacity as officers, employees, or agents of the Federal Government. POs
can be great mediums for encouraging community involvement among like-minded individuals on base and can greatly enrich the lives of members of the DoD
and their dependents. Because individuals running POs are often also members of or closely associated with the DoD, however, the possibility exists for actual or apparent conflicts of interest to sometimes arise
between those dual roles. To address this issue, Air Force-wide rules have been established to regulate and monitor the activities of base-associated POs. Such regulations and other useful information can be found below. Of particular importance are templates to request fundraisers (which you can do even as an unofficial organization) and information on how to make proper
requests for off-base solicitations.
We look forward to working with you and your organization! If you have any questions pertaining to POs, unofficial organizations, or anything you see
below, please contact the base legal office at 247-2838.
