Instead, it allows an idea to germinate until it is ready to truly grow into its own structure, or merge into something else, or stop. Sultana services are intended for organizations that are in the preliminary stages of their development. They are available to nonprofits that are registered with the state of alaska and to those that have received their federal 501(c)(3) status. Shared employment is only available as part of sultana's overall services. The maximum staff for each project or organization is five. Each employee is hired based on the needs of the project or organization and is supervised in conjunction with sultana.
