Starting a nonprofit? How many programs should you have? #nonprofits #startinganonprofit #nonprofitorganization
When you're starting or growing a nonprofit, if you have multiple program ideas, should you conduct all of them under one nonprofit umbrella? How do you know which program is the best choice for your nonprofit?
In this video will talk through some answers to those questions and more! If you are starting a nonprofit, or adding programs to a growing nonprofit, I hope this helps!

I have been working on our program for some time now and i still always learn something new from your video's!! Currently my nonprofit Burn Away Your Burdens is looking for a mental health professional as our next step in moving forward. Do you know any places where we could potentioally find a mental health professional willing to donate some time?Thank you so much for your hardwork and dedication to social change! Your videos are a huge help!

[@AmberMelanieSmith]

Very cool! I would recommend some of the volunteer recruiting websites like VolunteerMatch, your local volunteer center / Points of Light affiliate.

[@krazykc06]

Would scholarships serve as a program?

[@AmberMelanieSmith]

I would think so!
