Description
Perhaps you’re one of those people who believe that making money isn’t the only important thing in life. Maybe you have a cause that you think deserves increased prominence and support. Then you may be considering starting a nonprofit organization or be in the process of starting one, be it a homeless shelter or a kids sports league. Or you may be wondering if you should? If so, this workshop is for you.
We’ll discuss the differences between a for-profit business and a nonprofit and how to choose between them. We’ll explore the pros and cons of each. We’ll review the nuts-and-bolts steps required to start a nonprofit in Washington and what you need to do to make an organization exempt from Federal taxes, if that’s appropriate. We’ll review the reporting requirements you’ll have to meet and the costs of these various essentials. There will be an opportunity for Q&A and printed materials to take home.
