501(c)(3) Non-Profit Registration Support
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
My name is Dr. Eric Hite, and I am the founder of a new non-profit organization poised to make a significant impact on the lives of young people in Jackson, Mississippi called the National Council on Urban Investing Education (N.U.B.I.A.N.) that envisions a future where inner-city, low-income, high-crime students in impoverished and crime-ridden areas have the knowledge, skills, and confidence to participate in the stock market and build long-term financial security.
Our core mission is to provide consistent and active exposure, education, awareness, and ongoing support in the realm of stock market investing to these underserved students. We firmly believe that financial literacy is a critical life skill that can break cycles of poverty and create pathways to economic opportunity. By introducing these young individuals to the world of investing, we aim to demystify the process, build their understanding of wealth creation, and empower them to take control of their financial futures. Our goal is ambitious yet deeply meaningful: to see 1,000,000 students actively and consistently investing in the stock market within the next three years as a direct result of our programs.
To achieve this impactful mission, N.U.B.I.A.N. is committed to providing its programs entirely free of charge to students and their families. This necessitates robust fundraising efforts to cover the administrative costs, engaging and interactive workshops, recognition and awards to incentivize participation, and the various other expenses associated with effective program implementation. Our initial fundraising target is $1,500,000, which will be strategically deployed to ensure the accessibility and high quality of our educational initiatives.
At this crucial stage of our development, N.U.B.I.A.N. requires expert assistance to formally establish itself as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization under the regulations of both the state of Mississippi and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). This official designation is paramount for our credibility, our ability to receive tax-deductible donations, and our long-term sustainability.
Therefore, we are seeking a highly skilled and experienced gig worker to manage and complete the necessary paperwork and filings required to achieve this official non-profit status. Specifically, we require assistance with the following:
Mississippi Non-profit Incorporation: Preparing and filing the Articles of Incorporation with the Mississippi Secretary of State to legally establish N.U.B.I.A.N. as a non-profit corporation within the state. This includes ensuring all required information is accurately provided and the filing process is completed efficiently.
Federal 501(c)(3) Application (IRS Form 1023): Completing and submitting the comprehensive application to the IRS to obtain 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. This involves a thorough understanding of the eligibility requirements, accurately detailing our organizational structure, purpose, activities, and financial information. We need someone who can navigate the complexities of Form 1023 and present our organization in a compelling and compliant manner.
Obtaining an EIN (Employer Identification Number): If not already part of the incorporation process, assisting us in obtaining an EIN from the IRS, which is essential for operating as a formal organization.
Guidance on State-Specific Requirements: Providing insights and guidance on any additional state-level requirements for non-profit organizations in Mississippi, such as state tax exemptions or charitable solicitation registration, although the primary focus of this initial engagement is the 501(c)(3) status.
We are looking for a detail-oriented professional with a proven track record of successfully assisting non-profit organizations in obtaining their 501(c)(3) designation. Excellent communication skills, a thorough understanding of relevant regulations, and the ability to manage deadlines effectively are essential. The ideal candidate will be able to work independently, ask clarifying questions when needed, and provide clear documentation of the completed filings.
We are excited to partner with someone who can help us lay this essential groundwork and pave the way for a brighter financial future for the young people we aim to serve in Jackson, Mississippi.
