Any 501c organization needs to have this Federal Tax ID number to prove it's existence as a non-profit business. Gifts given (financial and/or in kind) are tax deductible for the donor - without that Tax ID proof, you could not deduct those donations off your income tax.

As above, it would prove how it is qualified and what type of tax exempt organization it is (there are many types). Not all income is exempt for any of them...income unrelated to their charitable purpose is not for example...(say sales of food doing catering for affairs (or a gift shop) at your local VFW or Church....these are simply money making enterprises, in competition with others, and are generally subject to tax). The tax exempt entities while maybe not subject to income tax, do frequently have many other taxes they pay....employee/payroll related for example. They are also subject to audit, where they have to show how they raised the funds, handled them, and used them....and that it was all done in accord with why they were granted a tax exempt status.
