Our First Project - Starting Up!

Our first campaign for fundraising will help us accomplish three important things:

1. IRS tax-exempt status
2. Incorporate as a legal non-profit organization in Florida
3. Register to solicit donations in Florida


Four and I are doing everything out of pocket right now.
Every dollar donated helps us get Save Coral up and running quicker!

The average cost of setting up a non-profit in Florida is $2500. This campaign's goal is solely based on those costs which are included below.

- Florida Articles of Incorporation & Registered Agent: $78.75 ($35 filing + $35 agent fee + $8.75 Certified Copy of Status).

- Florida Solicitation of Contributions: $10-400 for registration.

- Florida Sunbiz Annual Report: $61.25

- IRS Form 1023 Filing for 501c3 non-profit status: $600
- Legal Fees for help with IRS filing: $500
- Domain name, website with Wix and business email integration: $211.60


Rounded total: $2026

(The year of our establishment!)
