Steps to Form a Charitable Organization

As a way to be informative about charity organizations, how to form one and what to do first, here are the steps needed to take to develop a charitable organization:

·      When forming a charitable organization you will first need to file the certificate of incorporation. A certificate of incorporation is a legal document or license relating to the formation of a corporation.

·      Secondly, you will need to select individuals to serve on the board of directors. The board of directors oversees the activities of the organization.

·      Appoint leaders that know your vision and your goal and can carry it out the way you intended.

·      Develop a vision and a mission statement. What are the goals of the company? What is its vision?

·      Establish bylaws and board policies. How will the organization be managed and how will it be run? You will then have your agenda on the organization and aid in resolving internal disputes.

·      You will need to obtain an employeridentification number (EIN). This is used to identify the entity of the business.

·      Next you will need to open a bank account to establish check-signing procedures.

·      File for federal tax exemption. You must follow state and local nonprofit regulations. Non-profit organizations exist to carry out charitable, educational or civic responsibilities and are highly regulated.

·      Also you need to find office space and obtain office equipment. This is so you have a location for your company as well as a place to work.

·      Recruit and prepare a personnel manual or an employee handbook.

·      After that, establish a payroll system and acquire necessary insurance coverage.

·      Lastly, develop an overall fundraising plan.

There are many ideas used in fundraising. Some example include selling candy, cookies, cakes, cups, plates, and also putting on car washes, and so on. There are many ideas but make sure that your idea is unique! Good luck in advance. 

JANELLE MONEA

ELECTRIC LADY…WHO IS SHE AND WHAT DOES SHE STAND FOR?

In an interview at the Breakfast Club 105.1, Janelle Monea expresses the true definition of who she is and what she stands for. 

Janelle Monea is one lady that should be and is looked up to for her style, poise, calamity, and positive messages ministered throughout her music. She is passionate about her fight for independence and relating to women and girls in a way that does not show uncovered layers of clothing. She describes herself as a “Walking Art with a Message,” and “Electric Lady,” including herself is not categorized in any genre. This is what separates her.

She advises others to hang out with people smarter than they are, which is smartest in the world of leadership and entertainment. As a believer of the possibilities of a future and career that this advice contains, it is wise to do just that.

As a woman with some of the same motives as me to inspire, heal, and move people through song, she makes me feel confident in being the “Electric Lady” that I am. She was mentored by some of the greatest performers of all time with unique capabilities. Motivation speaks for itself through this lady as I listen to her speak passionately about her music. She is a go-getter and an entrepreneur.
