Our Non-Profit Start Up Services

Start a Non Profit, Foundation, or Charity

Starting a nonprofit or 501c3 charity can be very rewarding but very complex as well. In addition to providing your services, you must also hire, train & manage employees, maintain compliance with government regulations, understand your market and position your company to grow. Donations do not come by easily, the odds of failing and business risks are high. The more time you spend on this task the less time you have to do what you do best.
