My Nonprofit Reviews

Pro Bono has done so much for our urban garden non-profit that I don't know where to begin. In our first meeting, we met with 3 lawyers who helped us identify what we needed to change, file, or create to comply with regulations that would allow us to seek government-funded grants, and insure that we protect the integrity of the organization . For example, we never knew that we had to meet certain criteria just to qualify as a "public charity". Over the last year, we have received the kind of follow-up help that we never could have done ourselves.
Examples:
- One of the most important issues was helping us review employee contracts and separate them into "contractor" and "staff", with clear role delineations and payment menthods for each.
- Revising our Articles of Incorporation, drafting policies and procedures
- Drafting release forms for our clients and volunteers.
- Provinding information about insurance coverage.
. . . and so much more! ProBono has been a lifesaver for us.
