  • Thinking of serving on a nonprofit board of directors? Here's what you need to know. #Nonprofit #leadership #Nonprofits
    I work full time for the 501c3 nonprofit I started many years ago and engaging with my nonprofit's Board of Directors is a key part of making the organization a success! When starting a nonprofit or growing one, nonprofit board members need to understand their responsibilities clearly so they can lead and help the organization fundraise, operate programs, and more effectively.
    If you are starting or growing a 501c3 nonprofit organization, thinking about it, or interested in serving on a Nonprofit board of directors, I hope this helps!

    Just agreed to be on a local non-profit (-the elementary school building where I taught was sold) and new owner wants to meet more community-type needs. Any advice? Your video was informative-thank you!

      I would first ask I guess, what are they doing now and how does it compare to what they want to be doing? Have they done a community needs assessment survey to understand the most recent needs?

    Hi Amber! I started a non profit organization two years and we are still working on the registration process. It would be great if you could give some tips and facts on making the bylaws of a non profit organization.

    Hi. I just saw your video and found it very insighful. Would it possible to connect to discuss hospital board that I am trying to join. Thanks.

    Hi Amber, maybe you can help me with this question. I hear a lot of people talking about 1023 ez VS 1023. 1023 ez seems more simple to fill out. My question is what If I raise more than 50 thousand in one year with the 1023 ez. Are we allowed to raise more than 50 thousand a year with 1023 ez......... Thank you so much, Amber ......... I await your answer.

      If you raise more, you may have to file updates to the IRS, I believe.
