Description:
Launching a nonprofit organization can be a powerful way to advance a mission, address community needs, and create lasting impact. However, forming and operating a nonprofit involves unique legal, governance, tax, and compliance considerations that differ significantly from running a for-profit business.
In this webinar, PilieroMazza’s Kristen Centre will provide business leaders, entrepreneurs, and prospective founders with a practical overview of the nonprofit formation process, including organizational structure, governance responsibilities, tax-exempt status, fundraising considerations, and ongoing compliance obligations. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of the key decisions and requirements involved in building a strong foundation for a successful and sustainable nonprofit.
Learning objectives include:
- Understand the legal and operational steps involved in forming a nonprofit organization.
- Learn the roles and responsibilities of founders, directors, and officers in nonprofit governance.
- Identify key tax-exemption, fundraising, and compliance requirements that affect nonprofit operations.
- Explore common challenges and best practices for building a sustainable and mission-driven organization.
