Starting a nonprofit is one of the most rewarding ways to give back to your community and make a lasting impact. It’s also a journey that takes thoughtful planning, dedication, and a clear vision for the change you want to create.
Applying for tax-exempt status is a big step towards starting your nonprofit, and requires completing the IRS’s 1023 Application, which can take a novice over 100 hours. Staying compliant with ongoing federal and state responsibilities, like annual reporting, is just as important.
