Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Non-profit entities

[Mary Baker, Solid Communications (mary]

Hi Joel,

I live on a multi-home farm, and we have two 501(c)3 non-profits. One is to 
support costs for growing and raising produce and livestock to support local 
hunger missions and food banks, and one is a gleaning organization.

In addition to grants, I have found that local and regional groups, businesses 
and media are incredible resources. 

Remind me by private email, and I’ll be happy to send you weblinks, copies of 
our mission statements, boilerplates, and application templates.

Warm regards,
Mary Baker

Hey Cohos,

Hundredfold Farm Cohousing in Orrtanna PA is considering formation of a
501(c)3 non-profit arm for the purpose of sponsoring events and receiving
grants from foundations. Have any other communities done this? Problems?
Successes? How did you use the non-profit? What were some of your mission
goals?

Respond on or off line...
