This organization was started as THE JOHN BEAN OF EXETER FAMILY ASSOCIATION but eventually became dormant. At that time there was no recognized Chief of Clan MacBean. Bernie Bean started CLAN MACBEAN IN NORTH AMERICA, INC. as a way to resurrect and expand the old association. The Organization is controled by the membership through the Board of Directors and the elected officers. In 1996 the website was first launched and as more people around the world were contacting this organization, the name was changed to CLAN MACBEAN, INC. to reach all of our clan members around the world and to change the function of the organization to meet the new needs. It is with this change that we have a new tax status.

The purpose of Clan MacBean, Inc. is to educate and inform persons of contributions to Scottish history, heritage and culture made by members of the ancient Clan MacBean of Scotland, the ancient Clan Chattan Confederation of Scotland (of which Clan MacBean is a constituent) and descendants of both through a variety of educational activities including but not limited to the dissemination of histories, genealogies, works of art and other appropriate undertakings. To foster these activities, the IRS has granted Clan MacBean, Inc. status as a 501(c)(3) charitable educational organization. This means that contributions to Clan MacBean are tax deductible and may be claimed as charitable deductions on the contributors federal income tax.
