One of the easiest ways to get off the ground with
all the above stuff
that Will recommends is to operate under the umbrella of a larger
501(c)3 organization. This means that you can ask for grants under
their name and give them a piece of it in return for operating under
their aegis.
Warning! Thin ice!
Money from grants is to be used for what the grant is for, and NOTHING
else. If, as you propose, a piece of the grant is kicked back to the
larger organization, and this is not spelled out explicitly in the
grant proposal - well, shit...fan...Clorox Wipes...
The catch is that if you explicitly state this scheme in the proposal,
the grant will likely not be given.
