CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments
| In the first few years of organizing the Sweetgrass project, our financial needs consisted of applying for tax exempt status, paying for accounting services, and producing printed materials that described the project. In the first three years, these expenses were paid by the family who founded the organization. In the two years since then, we have raised funds from our closest friends and Advisory Board members. A few calls were made to local foundations, with the response that we need more preparation, as a start-up organization, to be considered for a grant. We were working on a business plan and refining our model by visiting other communities in the U S and region. We were not ready to proceed with purchasing land andbeginning construction. We first needed to find like-minded partners: an architect, developer, builder and investors who believe in the mission of creating a community where people who might have been socially isolated could live in safety and contribute to community life. In 2017 we raised $12,355 from 17 friends, Advisory Board members and followers of our newsletter. In 2018 we raised $16,168 from 25 friends, Advisory Board members, Board members and newsletter followers.With these funds we were able to hire a consultant who helped with strategic planning, helped produce a Fund Raising Plan and led the board in designing a business plan. We were also able to acquire a volunteer staff member, who is taking on some of the responsibilities of running a growing organization. He is moving us toward completion of the business plan. Other professional people have stepped up to volunteer their time-- attorneys, bankers, real estate developers, to help bring the quality of the business plan to a more professional level. We are blessed. |
Foundation Staff Comments
| This organization filed a 990-N form with the IRS, which does not provide specific financial information. Most small tax-exempt organizations whose annual gross receipts are normally $50,000 or less ($25,000 for tax years ending after December 31, 2007 and before December 31, 2010) are required to electronically submit Form 990-N, also known as the e-Postcard, unless they choose to file a complete Form 990 or Form 990-EZ instead.
