Knowing how to form a charitable nonprofit is just one part of the puzzle. Taking the time to answer this question is just as important: Is a nonprofit the best option for you?
Through a nonprofit, you could make an amazing contribution to your community. But forming a nonprofit, choosing a leadership team, laying the nonprofit's foundation, raising funds, and offering services requires a lot. Time, energy, focus, persistence, and more.
So, I've created Clarity Before Commitment to give you space. Space to explore your vision, possible operating models, nonprofit pros and cons, and more. To help you draw out those questions hiding in the back of your mind.
And a few you may not have considered.
So you can reach a confident decision about whether and when to launch and lead a U.S. charitable nonprofit.
Together, we'll put aside the idea of tackling forms and examine the questions and decisions that shape the typical nonprofit founder's journey:
What problem are you called to solve?
Does a nonprofit make sense?
What other options should you consider?
Are you ready for the responsibilities ahead?
What strengths—and gaps—do you bring?
What's your wisest next step?
We'll have three live small-group sessions to discuss your vision for serving others and generate important questions specific to your vision. Between sessions, you'll seek the answers so we can explore the possibilities when we come back together. You'll get:
- Live work sessions to explore your Vision, concerns, and questions
- Guidance to help you research the right questions
- Help arriving at clear next steps--whether you decide to form a nonprofit or take another path
