How To Pay Yourself From Your Nonprofit

Even after I realized that I had to start paying myself from my nonprofit, I didn’t know how to do that. Our donations were irregular, I wasn’t landing big multi-year grants that included my salary, so I wasn’t sure how to pay myself. Do I just take more money some months and none the others? In this episode, I show you exactly how to pay yourself from your nonprofit regardless of how little revenue you are bringing in.

PRACTICAL AND APPROACHABLE NONPROFIT STRATEGY THAT HELPS ORGANIZATIONS GET CLEAR, GET FOCUSED, and GET FUNDING SO THEY CAN BE IMPACTFUL without being overwhelmed by all the traditional nonprofit advice. Nonprofits don’t have to be grueling and Executive Directors shouldn’t be constantly exhausted. It takes courage to step out in faith and follow a calling and I believe the world needs the solution your nonprofit offers. Running a thriving nonprofit takes leadership, strategy, program evaluation and intentional fundraising but it doesn’t need to be overwhelming. Everything you do can be maximized and leveraged to accomplish your mission in one solid, cohesive way. Stop working for a nonprofit and start working For Purpose, On Purpose.

Thank u for this info...i am considering a non-profit for my son...he has autism...thanks again...❤

[@forpurposelive]

My son also has an autism diagnosis 🤗. When thinking of creating a nonprofit in which there are already many serving the same population, make sure your mission is set apart from others or addresses a current gap that is out there. Many times you can be more effective partnering with an already existing nonprofit unless of course you have a really innovative solution to the problem.

How about to open a Bank account?

[@juanawashington9597]

I thought your board of directors controlled the salaries?

[@forpurposelive]

Board of Directors will vote on and approve an ED salary but EDs are responsible for setting and budgeting for the operations budget including salaries. To be able to pay other staff you must start with yourself and many people start nonprofits with no salary. This method is a good way to start putting aside money for your salary so you can make a case to the board of directors that you have enough to sustain being paid.
