Here are a couple of nonprofit start-up links that I found on some of the listservs that I subscribe to.

• Nonprofit Start Up Guide. From the Dorothy A. Johnson Center for Philanthrophy and Nonprofit Leadership at Grand Valley State University.

• The Things You Gotta’ Do to Start a Nonprofit Organization. The Checklist Project of The Nonprofit Coordinating Committee of New York (NPCC).

• "From Vision to Reality" A great book from Community Resource Exchange. Through worksheets, model documents and plain spoken explanations, this 250-page handbook will guide you on how to design an effective program, create a budget, raise money, form a board of directors, hire staff and take all the steps you need to launch a successful nonprofit.
