Would rather have this handled for you?What we do, and where to start

We put a mission into words, file the registration, claim the grant and benefit programs that open once the determination letter arrives, worth up to $329 a day of Google advertising alone, and get an operating nonprofit found by donors, sponsors and volunteers.

Which of that applies depends on where you are. Tell us, and we will say what is open to you and in what order.

Where are you now? Just an idea so far We start with the mission. Everything after it is checked against it, including what the IRS will approve. Filing now, or waiting on the IRS We file it, and line up the programs worth claiming the day the determination letter arrives. Already operating We bring donors, sponsors and volunteers, and get you found by the people already looking for what you do.

Name optional

Phone optional

Ask on WhatsApp Same people, and the reply arrives in the chat rather than your inbox.

Either route reaches a person who reads it and answers, usually the same day. There is no charge for working out what fits you. We are not attorneys and not CPAs, and nothing here is legal or tax advice.
