Non-Profit Organizational Start-Up Self-Paced DVD Comes Complete with Instructional Booklet and Samples

The self paced video or the do-it-yourself-package will give you complete instruction for filing your papers to become incorporated and receive your 501 (c) 3 Non-Profit Status. 

Along with the Self-Paced DVD for incorporating as a Non Profit 501(c)3 you will also receive a comprehensive instructional book which has been developed in response to many requests from individuals starting new organizations. The need for nonprofit classification and the lack of funds to hire a professional to complete the forms places many new corporations at a roadblock. It is our belief that the funds that might be used to hire a professional should be kept in the new organization for program support that will benefit the community. We also believe that by completing this process yourself, you will have a greater understanding of the nonprofit world. If, however you feel uncomfortable preparing the documents yourself, we provide low cost consulting services to help you through the mirage.

The Grantsmanship Institute has strived to develop a self-paced DVD and instruction booklet that will provide the assistance your organization needs and will allow you and your volunteers to provide greater service to the community. While the IRS provides great instructions for completing all forms, sometimes their wording can be confusing.  In addition, most sample documents from the IRS are in PDF format, requiring you to retype the documents.  This booklet contains a sample set of by-laws, sample conflict of interest policy, and sample attachment requirements in Word documents so that you can copy, paste and revise as necessary to your needs.
