“Nonprofit Setup: Setting up our nonprofit required covering legal fees for 501(c)(3) registration, state incorporation, and compliance filings, along with administrative costs like building our website, marketing, and initial program materials. We also had to invest in operational setup, including office space, technology, insurance, and outreach to establish strong community partnerships.”
