Start a nonprofit with ease. From vision and mission to bylaws and tax forms, we help you lay the foundation for long-term impact in your community.

What Makes Our Nonprofit Start-up Services Unique

Launching a new nonprofit can feel overwhelming. We know this firsthand because we’ve done it ourselves.

After a decade as an award-winning attorney, in 2018, our CEO founded The Safe Sisters Circle, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides culturally specific, trauma-informed, and holistic services for Black women survivors of sexual and domestic violence in Washington, DC.

To help even more diverse leaders transform bold ideas into concrete impact, we provide comprehensive nonprofit start-up services. We primarily work with Black women leaders, women of color with bold ideas, and others looking to make a positive difference in Black and Brown communities.

When you work with our team to start your nonprofit, we are with you every step of the way—from securing your tax exempt status to recruiting your board to refining your vision and mission. We even offer add-on program design and fundraising services, so you’ll have the support you and your new nonprofit need to thrive.
