About
This website is a complete source for starting a charitable nonprofit organization by Preparing Your Own 501(c)(3) Application for tax exemption. The IRS form 1023 is explained and examined page by page, and every question is answered with references to successful applications and sample documents. Start with the vertical menu on the right side of the page and go in the same order until you finish the process. I update this site regularly and add useful information to the article section, so check that out as well. I did not design this website to win any beauty contest, I designed it to achieve its purpose: helping you prepare your form 1023 application with simplicity. On average, a user stays on this site 51 minutes on each visit – that’s more than 99% of other websites on the internet. To make it bearable for the users to stare at a screen for that long, I chose a clean interface, neutral colors, simple layout, and familiar type faces. Everything on this website is linked in one way or another as the ease of navigation was my main priority. I stayed away from using images unless absolutely necessary, and as a result, the pages will load on any connection with no trouble.
I also tried hard to make this site cross-compatible with Internet Explorer browser as there are many of you who still use this ancient browser. If you are using Internet explorer, specially the older versions, I strongly encourage you to start using modern web browsers like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Opera to see this site and million other websites on the internet the way they were intended to be seen. If you ever find anything broken, misspelled or just out of wack, shoot me an email and I will take care of it. One last thing for the ladies before you tear my head off, you’ll see a lot of “He” on this site. This is not gender driven, it’s just an old and common generalization in English language. I wish I could say have fun, but I know that preparing the form 1023 is far from fun, so all I can say is good luck.
If you want to get to know me, you can visit my regular blog here. Hope you find the agonizing work of several months useful at least.
