Customer Reviews

Clear and full of key details

I've long been a fan of the Nolo Press legal guides, but when I came across this in a local library, I took it home for a read and was very impressed. In a very readable manner, it explains the various choices; it also has forms and state-by-state information. I'm involved with two groups considering nonprofit status and it brought out many good points we hadn't thought of.

A Practicle and Simple Resource

As a fan of self-help legal survival guides, I found this book very helpful. It's simple to read, only about 70 pages defining various types of nonprofit organizations, procedures for getting started and applying for tax-exempt status, and a bit on raising money and running a corporation. The appendices are actually the most helpful, listing websites, books, information on each state's requirements, and a section of forms including templates for annual meeting minutes. Overall, a good book on the basics of starting a nonprofit organization.
