The Counterterrorism & Security Education and Research Foundation is a not for profit foundation set up by the International Association for Counterterrorism and Security Professionals (IACSP).
In 1997, as well as setting up the various websites, IACSP launched its magazine, the Journal of Counterterrorism & Homeland Security International, and set up its Washington based not-for-profit foundation, the Counterterrorism & Security Education and Research Foundation (CTSERF). According to the not-for-profit website Tax Exempt World, CTSERF was granted tax exempt status in March 1999, c/o EDWARD V BADOLATO. Its registered address was given as 4200 Wisconsin Ave, NW 128, Washington, DC 20016-2143. [1]
CTSERF is essentially a tax avoidance entity set up to collect funds from donors and commission research to IACSP. The accounts also suggest that research grants are allocated by IACSP on behalf of CTSERF – perhaps to avoid disclosing details of the grants’ recipients. An explanatory note in the Foundation’s 2001 tax returns reads as follows:
SCHEDULE A, PART III – EXPLANATION FOR LINE 2E
COUNTERTERRORISM AND SECURITY & RESEARCH FOUNDATION (CTSERF) WAS ESTABLISHED BY OFFICERS OF THE INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR COUNTERTERRORISM AND SECURITY PROFESSIONALS (IACSP). THE RESEARCH AND EDUCATIONAL DESGINATED FUNDS ARE THEREFORE TRANSFERRED TO IACSP, WHICH IN TURN MAKES THE RESEARCH GRANTS. [2]
