African American Traylor Family Preservation Association Inc
Public records raise at least one point you should look into before giving.
What it says it does
The purpose of THE AFRICAN AMERICAN TRAYLOR PRESERVATION ASSOCIATION, INC., is to provide its members with further education on family history, genealogy, and generational family health issues. The descendants of the formerly enslaved Traylors endeavor to carry forward their family traditions to each succeeding generation to promote pride in the family's accomplishments individually and as a whole. Also, in light of increasing evidence of the prevalence of prevailing genetic medical conditions, we want to raise awareness among our family members of the need for vigilance regarding their health. THE AFRICAN AMERICAN TRAYLOR PRESERVATION ASSOCIATION, INC. will handle all the business affairs of the Association, including holding biennial family reunions and ensuring regular communications among family members.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.
