I'm not sure what you mean? Senators are not nonprofit organizations (they are government).

As an employee now always thinking about a business, business does not happen with less money If you cooperate with 10 lakhs, I can pay 10 lakhs or 5 lakhs within a year Many people are sitting with crores of money but no one helps us to live well The fun of doing business without interest is different I am trying, one day I will succeed

can I volunteer by bringing my own dog with me?
@AmberMelanieSmith4 күн бұрын
I think that would depend on the organization and its own rules. I'm not sure how that would work at another animal rescue, but sometimes senior centers (the kind for humans) have doggy volunteer visitors. 😊

@AmberMelanieSmith Thank you for replying, I thank you utube lessons are great and have been taking lots of notes. I really like your sign. My ministry's or non-profit might incorporate asking the homeless is they want to pick-up trash. And use that as an urnd income. Like 10,20and 50$ trash bags

Conflict of interest can be confusing because what if the NP was founded by relatives and some of those relatives have very special skills and services they’d been contributing for free from the start. Then when funding comes in they can’t be paid? We often start organizations with very limited resources and access to providers. That’s when we lean on friends and family for support. If a married couple start a NP, and they are the working board in the early stages, how do you transition when you expand capacity?
@AmberMelanieSmith5 күн бұрын
I hear you. Basically, the IRS wants to ensure nonprofits are not formed to be controlled or to serve the interest of one person or family, so it set up these checks and balances.

I’m 24 and starting up a nonprofit in San Diego! I’m very excited and a bit nervous about it but I’ve created my own domain, building up my website and getting my business license and filings done soon. There’s a lot to learn and the more I learn the more questions I have and more questions I need to answer. I love budgeting and organizing things so thank you for that info…I also love that all the people here are either thinking about starting one or have done so already. You all are amazing and I wish you luck in your journeys and we can get through all of this together!

can i start a foundation to collect donations for myself? i'm recently disabled, and i'm surrounded by people that aren't taking initiative. Or, does that even seem like a good idea? i'm just looking to provide a place for people to be able to donate to me. thanks.
@AmberMelanieSmith7 күн бұрын
No, the IRS would consider this a conflict of interest, but you could possibly engage with an existing nonprofit who provides support for cases like yours and who may offer financial assistance.

Are you thinking a private foundation (where you primarily fund it) or a public charity (where you request public donations)? I think identifying the target population you want to serve and doing interviews/focus groups to understand their needs is a great first step!

@ambermelaniesmith this video couldn’t have been more timely for me and the nonprofit I founded. Our approach to sexual abuse prevention is pretty uncommon and it’s been challenging to get people to grasp why our methods will work to achieve our goals. I’m a pro at explaining but it takes a lot of time and a lot of follow-up. I think a theory of change document is going to help a lot. Thank you. ❤

Do you have to file by-laws if you don't have any board members? Does the IRS require board members for a small non profit that only the owner runs?
@AmberMelanieSmith8 күн бұрын
Yes, the IRS requires you have board members in most cases. Nonprofits legally don't have "owners" (even the founder), they are considered community-led. Founders can still become Executive Directors and work for the nonprofit if voted in by their Board.
