Georgia — Paid Solicitor Bond
A Georgia paid solicitor with physical possession or legal control of collected contributions must provide $10,000 security. Match S-100D to the actual business and its start date through December 31. Registration, the charity contract and campaign filings still need separate attention after the bond is arranged.

What this bond does
Provide Secretary of State-accepted paid solicitor security under O.C.G.A. Section 43-17-4 for the contribution-handling role described in the registration.
- Who needs it
- The compensated paid solicitor handling collected contributions through physical possession or legal control. Georgia's guidance also includes fundraising counsel that has custody of contributions in the paid solicitor definition. Do not assume the benefiting charity is the bond applicant.
- Who it protects
- S-100D runs to Georgia's Secretary of State for the state and persons with causes of action for solicitation malfeasance or misfeasance. It conditions security on faithful, honest and lawful conduct, compliance with the Charitable Solicitations Act and indemnification of covered loss. Recoveries may continue until the single $10,000 aggregate is exhausted.

Questions about this bond
Does the security requirement depend only on whether I physically receive money?
No. Georgia's current instructions also include legal control of collected contributions. S-100 asks about physical possession or legal control and requires security and a financial statement when that answer applies.
Does a late-year bond purchase give me twelve months of registration?
No. The S-100D term ends December 31 of the entered year, and paid solicitor registration expires December 31. Prepare the actual year's document and the required annual renewal rather than measuring from purchase.
