Then you need "How To Start A Nonprofit", a 36-page, information-packed eBook (PDF format) by Michelle Nusum-Smith, owner and principal consultant at The Word Woman LLC! In it, you will learn:
the difference between nonprofit, tax-exempt, and 501(c)(3)...they are not the same,
the state and federal government agencies you will need to file paperwork with,
what you must do before "the paperwork",
who you need on your team…because you cannot do it alone,
how to select your first board members,
how obtain tax-exempt status,
how to plan your first year, and
much more!
Michelle also discusses other options you have to “do good” if you determine starting a nonprofit isn’t right for you.
