What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Louisiana regulates charitable fundraising under the Solicitation of Charitable Funds provisions, administered by the Department of Justice (Attorney General), Consumer Protection. A professional solicitor is a paid fundraiser who solicits contributions on behalf of charities — and when that solicitor has custody or control of the contributions, the law requires a bond.
The bond is a donor-and-charity protection guarantee. It stands behind the contributions you collect — if a solicitor mishandles or fails to remit charitable funds, the harmed charity or the public can recover against the bond. It is filed with the state treasurer as part of your registration.
The statutory amount is $25,000 or greater as the department prescribes. The bond must stay active for as long as you are registered — we track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, keeping your filing continuous.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $25,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
