Specific Event Information:
Title: “An Event to Remember: How Nonprofit Organizations Can Stay on the Right Side of the Law” with the Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts
Starting a new nonprofit is 10% inspiration, 90% perspiration. Many people when starting out have a great idea, but getting a nonprofit organization off the ground takes time, energy, and legal and business know how. Learn about what you need to think about moving forward: business model, charitable purpose, operations, donations, government filing, board of directors, members, volunteers, and more.
