Nonprofit Connectors (NPC) is a consulting company that I designed to assist individuals who want to start a nonprofit, and connect new nonprofits with established ones. Our goal is to help individuals through the nonprofit startup phase, and then through NPC’s community area new nonprofits will be able to seek additional guidance from established nonprofits through conversations in our private members only area.

This idea came about as I started compiling a list of resources to help anyone start a nonprofit. I thought I would set my resources up from the first step through to finding a location to house your nonprofit. As the idea grew, it was apparent to me that what I created would be useful to anyone at any phase in the nonprofit process. So, that’s how NPC was created.

I am a certified master virtual assistant (CMVA), which means I provide administrative support to my clients from my home office. My clients are all in the nonprofit sector either as volunteer boards of directors or executive directors. I started my first business, Virtual Details, LLC, in September 2000, and then I started working with nonprofit groups in 2001. I’ve been so involved with nonprofits over the course of the last six years that I decided to start a second business that will be dedicated to helping new nonprofits get started.

In my CMVA capacity, I’m responsible for my clients’ administrative affairs. I’ve helped to complete the application Form 1023 for the 501(c )3. I’ve created policies and procedures, reviewed and updated bylaws for the board’s approval, and I’ve written business plans for most of my clients. Researching a new idea is my specialty. I’ve helped clients’ research ideas for new nonprofits regularly. All these responsibilities have given me the experience to the startup side of nonprofits, and have allowed me the creativity to come up with a way to pass on the benefit.

I’m so excited to announce that the website for NPC will launch on Monday, September 10. You’ll be able to get more detailed information about NPC, and how to take advantage of the resources. There will be a private member only area for serious individuals who want to start nonprofits. Then there will be active forums for members to join.

I believe NPC will help to establish more organizations where people are living out their passion of serving others. So has your joy about your nonprofit idea been quenched by just the thought of all the paper work? If so, checkout NPC, and we’ll help you to regain your excitement about your idea.
