  • Can family members serve on a nonprofit's board? In this video, let's talk about whether or not you're allowed to have family serve on your nonprofit's board. There are certain considerations you should be mindful of if you're a 501c3 public charity.
    Here's the IRS' definition for family for charitable organizations: www.irs.gov/charities-non-pro...
    You should also be mindful of the feasibility of having mostly family on your nonprofit's board of directors. How will that help or hinder your success when trying to launch your nonprofit? Watch this video to learn what to consider when adding family to your nonprofit organization's board of directors.

    We are focused on helping young Native American women to get a positive start on life by means of educational grants and mentotship. How should we acumulate funding to make this happen. We are a 501c3 organization.

    How many individuals can be on the board?

    • @BossonaBudget

      Hi, you can specify that for yourself in your bylaws. Your state law will likely indicate the minimum number of board members. The IRS likes to see at least 3.

      Hi! Unfortunately, I only focus on grants for 501c3 nonprofits. Try going here to find business grants: bit.ly/shebossgranttracker

    Can board members be located in different states?

      If your state law and bylaws allow it, yes.

    Is this statement saying that a sibling is not considered a family member? A brother or sister of an individual is not a member of the family for this purpose. Found this on the IRS link you provided

    • @BossonaBudget
      @BossonaBudget  ปีที่แล้ว

      That statement is, yes, and it pertains to private foundations.

    Is it illegal to have majority family as directors or is it just not recommended?I don't know anyone else that I trust at this time.

    • @BossonaBudget
      @BossonaBudget  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The question of legality would be for a lawyer, but generally that’s a red flag for the IRS. But many orgs do it, especially in the beginning.

      @Boss on a Budget - Build a Strong Nonprofit I be applying but I think I don't write much . My grant would be for Pinkclosets4schools we build closets in schools for clothes and accessories

      It sounds like an idea people would love to donate to in addition to grants. Have you checked into your local community foundation and identified the foundations connected to local businesses?

    • @BossonaBudget

      Sometimes it’s tough to get grant money for items- not impossible but some funders don’t want to give you money only for materials so I would frame it as a program and make sure you build all that in your budget. Have you considered getting donations from individuals (including inkind donations)
