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.

    I feel like this could work, you already have a personal bank account aside from your business and having a business savings and checking account would work. I wonder if you create a salary or contract or yourself will it be ok, I feel like the percent will keep you at a honest rate off what revenue you bring in. Allowing you to get more if you make more

I argue that we need to support our community somehow and/or educate the public on the benefits of classical music so it doesn't fade away and remain an 'old people' thing. If you have any pointers on how to make that a mission statement, please help! Then I need to pitch it and make bigger impacts 💪🎵

    You are dropping so many gems that can also benefit for-profit businesses. I was a small business hair salon owner and I also rehearse in my mind that my downfall in my business was I was "too nice". Because as a stylist you build these relationships with your clients that roll over to friendships. So you burn yourself out by being there for them as their friend and as their stylist and not charging them when it is time to go up on your prices.

We have been running since 2015 and help provide free clothing and housewares to the community for free with no stipulations! We also hold some furniture, baby supplies, and more! We run a completely free store that's open a couple days a week to the community. Thank you for the valuable information, I currently in college to get a degree to help expand the non-profit and I appreciate all of the extra knowledge! My mom does amazing work and I am so proud of her and all of the volunteers that make it possible.

      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.

    • @forpurposelive
      @forpurposelive 5 місяців тому

      The organization is tax exempt, so they pay no taxes on revenue or profits. Salaries to individuals and contractors are business expenses for the nonprofit, just like rent or electricity. The individuals being paid are NOT tax exempt. They're people like anyone else and they must pay taxes. If you get a job at March of Dimes it's no different than getting a job at Apple. You get paid and you must pay income taxes. Therefore the organization and the individual are completely different entities.

    • @forpurposelive
      @forpurposelive 6 місяців тому

      Until you can justify becoming a w-2 employee of your organization and use payroll software like Gusto, I would take direct deposits or checks written to you directly from the business account. I would categorize this expense under contractors and I would issue a 1099 at the end of the year for the ED and any other contractors paid. This is just my opinion and not meant to be financial advice. Definitely seek advice from a qualified accounting/tax professional.

Would it be beneficial to think of a Theory of Change as a holistic organizational tool to explain/understand your non-profit and a Logic Model as a framework for implementing the individual programs or services within your nonprofit?

    • @forpurposelive
      @forpurposelive 6 місяців тому

      Each program should and can have a theory of change too. Your overall nonprofit should have a theory of change - how are all your programs changing the problem or making an impact. That being said, each of your programs should have both a theory of change and a logic model. A logic model is really just a super detailed theory of change :)
