Hey Forum,
Some really talented people and I have recently been working on a nonprofit in Denmark. I have been documenting our process so far, and I invite you to check out the latest installment.
In this episode, I share how we went from 1 to 4 Co-founders.
If you Just want the take-aways, then here you go:
If I had to distill what I have learned since the last time, then my (very brief) experience is that it is surprisingly easy to rally people to work for a common cause.
I have tried to find co-founders in the past for commercial/for-profit projects and the difference is staggering.
This was also apparent in the response to my posts on Reddit. Immediately after writing there, people have reached out asking how they can help out, how they can get involved, and what they can help with. If I had known I would get such a response I would have been better prepared, because the truth is I didn’t know what I needed help with so far.
Thanks for reading! :-)
I’m in the very early stages of starting a nonprofit too and looking forward to reading more about your experience!
That’s awesome to hear and thanks a lot. What are you working on and where, if you don’t mind sharing?
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you—here’s the announcement https://newscience.org/
