How do I launch my nonprofit online?

Get off to the right start with our checklist.

1

Develop your mission

If you've already got a mission statement, great! You're half-way there. Otherwise, you should think about your organization's mission before you launch your website on your .org domain. You can start by writing down your goals.

Check local law

You don't need to register your organization as a 501(c) to register a .org domain, but it can help with fundraising. A .org domain signals trust, but a 501(c) says to possible donors that you're a nonprofit organization, making their contribution tax deductible.

Design your logo

Logos are more likely to get noticed and remembered — they also look great on t-shirts! But before you pay for a graphic designer, try creating your own logo for free with our Logo Generator.
