  • Starting a charitable organization

    Posted by Jacob Anderson on June 25, 2015 at 10:00 am

    Hi! I’d like to get some valuable advice here. I belong to a team of a social organization and we are some youngsters planning to set up a non-profitable charitable organization for the abused. We are raising fund from different sources. None of us have been into this before. Would like to know the requirements of starting a charitable organization. ? How long will the procedures last. Should we hire an agent for this purpose?

    Hey Jacob,

    Where are you based?

    Do you have money in the bank – or has anyone bestowed their inheritance on you?

    I guessing that you will be better off with a lawyer and an accountant. If you ask nicely, they may work for free as many have a fund for Pro Bono work – the bigger the firm the better.

    All the Best
