The North Carolina Center for Nonprofits is a state association for 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations who join our membership. To member organizations, we offer a wide variety of Member-only benefits that support our mission to educate, connect, and advocate for North Carolina nonprofits. We do not offer services in helping to start a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Here are helpful resources:
- How to Start a 501(c)(3) Nonprofit (Recursos similares disponibles en español.)
- IRS Tax Information for Nonprofits (en español)
- IRS Form 1023 Prerequisite Questions
- Business Link NC
- National Council of Nonprofits
- SCORE
- Guide to Succeeding in the Nonprofit Sector (Zippia)
Once you submit your 501(c)(3) application, we invite you to join the Center and experience our Members-only benefits.
If you'd simply like to volunteer, visit our Member Directory to find nonprofits in your community and contact them directly.
