Support Bell's Journey to Nonprofit Status
Donation protected
Hello Bell!
As part of a longer range vision to make Bell more tangibly active post-grad through:
- The Bell Fund - a fund of equity-free $$ that's the first check into any Beller's startup
- Engagement with alum via a Board of Governors
- and more ideas!
We are taking the first step towards this goal by making Bell a legal entity. As a 501(c)-3 nonprofit, we hope to be able to:
- Open a bank account and save money year over year
- Accept donations and sponsorships
- Start paying for our own domain (Thanks to Alex Rattray '18 for paying for it all of these years)
Registering a nonprofit is relatively expensive for an organization that currently depends on the fundraising efforts of college students over the span of a week. To lighten the burden on members themselves, we're looking for donations to help us make this happen. The money will go towards:
- $125 - Articles of Incorporation in the State of PA
- $275 - 1023-EZ Form for Tax-Exempt status with the IRS
- $117 - Rent a PO Box until we have a new president with a new address
Thanks for your support!
