Starting A Charity Organization Ia A Complex Process

Spread all around the world for communities benefit, charitable organizations are in fact non-profit organizations that center on philanthropic goals. Charities focus on one or most of the following issues: animals, arts& culture, children, community service, disabilities, disasters, educations, elderly, environment, history, human rights,
hunger /poverty, medical system, overseas aid, religion and research.

Non-profit organizations exist not to earn revenue, but to promote a mission that enhances the public welfare; being often eligible for tax-exempt status, in some cases they can also receive tax deductible contributions.

Mission statement describes the purpose for which every organizations has been founded; it should be clear, succinct and inspiring in order to have a great impact on those to which is addressed. A well-defined and compelling non-profit mission status should narrowly focus your energy and clarify your purpose so that it can motivate volunteers and donors to join your cause.

Passion is not enough for starting a non-profit organization, given that it is essentially just another type of business. The starting process is complex and includes some vital steps: - the business plan and a needs assessment which encompasses several elements, such as: executive summary, organizational structure, products, programs / services, operational plan and marketing, management and organizational team;
    - building an effective board which can be able to open doors for your charity due to their resources, influence and lots of contacts;
    - a fundraising plan which focuses on current and projected financial status.

The needs assessment is a survey or other research before you launch a product or service to determine whether your proposed non-profit is needed in your community or not. Once you have found a market for your product/ service market make sure you can cope successfully and accomplish your mission.
