My name is Brian, and I’m raising funds to help Rising Tide Community Group take its first official step toward becoming a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. We need $275 to file IRS Form 1023‑EZ. Once approved, Rising Tide will be able to accept tax‑deductible donations and begin serving our community at full strength.

Right now, donations are not tax‑deductible and will be used only to pay the IRS filing fee. If you can chip in $10–$20, you’ll be part of our Founders Circle helping Rising Tide launch with a solid foundation. Thank you for supporting this mission and helping us build something meaningful.
