I need to understand all the legal details and understand how much work it is to have a legitimate charity. Has anyone done this? Would you care to join me in my quest?

  1. get your organization together. Know what it is you want to do. Know who will do it and how much money it will take.

    Remember you need money to perform charity work.

    there are many organizations that will help you organize everything. idealist.org is a great resource to check out.

    Figure out how you will raise money. As a non profit you are allowed to earn money as long as all funds go towards your mission.

    to become a federally registered 501C3 organization, you need to apply with the US Government.

    It takes a while but if all is done well you will be fine.

    you have to register as a non profit corporation in Texas, then you have to register with the US Government
