PLEASE HELP? I need to know how to make a non-profit charity??? Help please? It's for good!?

Question

I want to know how to make a non-profit charity. . . Actually I'd like to make several. I'll be 14 on April 20, and I just wanna help! BUT HOW DO I MAKE A FREE WEBSITE FOR A NON-PROFIT CHARITY?

That's my main question. My next question is which of the following should I focus on more? Please give your honest opinion? Thank you sooooo much! ~.~

obesity

homeless

against abortion

global warming (I'm already going to help this one a lot)

abuse

advice (well, that's for yahoo! Answers. lol)

world hunger

education

retirement home (I've got blueprints and I wanna run it and help make it a realy caring environment)

I'm having trouble deciding. Please help? I REALLY feel like I'm meant to make a difference out there, and I do! God put me here for a reason, and I'll find that out. My main goal in life is to help with all these before I die.

I just wanna know which one to start with. OH! Don't forget about the other question please? Thank you sooooooooooooooooo much! ~.~

Answer 1

Get experience with an existing non profit organization-

Starting a new one is not easy-there are a lot of legalconsiderations--you can't jsut announce you are here-you have to file a lot of legal paperwork-

starting with becoming a 501c3 tax exempt organization

maybe you coudl forma subgroup to work in conjuction with a known charity-maybe a group that seeks donations of environmental friendly items to turn over to an established organization who in turn distrubutes tehm to teh community

Answer 2

My advice: don’t try to reinvent the wheel. Volunteer for an existing organization such as New Life International (www.waterfortheworld.com), which focuses on bringing water purification systems to remote locations in Africa; or Hope for Grace Kodindo (www.hopeforgracekodindo.org), which raises money for medical care that benefits pregnant women in Chad; or an organization local to your area.
