I have what I believe is a pretty good idea for a non-profit with a high likelihood of raising funds in the 7 digit area.

Ok, now the reality..

This idea is related to an area I have been involved with for the past 3 years.

I have no experience in setting this thing up although I have a handle on the necessary steps to do it.

I do not plan on using any of my own funds.

I alread have a name/domain name, logo idea and have written a business plan & mission statement.

So im wondering if crowd funding is a good avenue to raise funds for attorney or CPA to do the set up/application with the IRS and to hire someone to build a non-profit specific website?

I'd appreciate any feedback from anyone.

Thanks

Yeah, I've got a pretty good idea for one myself. I have talked to an accountant, that didn't help very much. I have spoken to a lawyer, and that was a lot better. The lawyer just so happens to specialize in non profits. I'm not sure that now is a good time for one like mine. With everything going nuts and almost everyone worried about the economy would there even be enough people that are willing to donate? Who knows? I have a Great idea for an advertisement! It would probably hit home to a lot of people! Getting it out there and in front of people is the challenge. Sorry I don't have any good advice for you but I certainly hope you get yours going and it really takes off!
