How do you get people and compaines to give sponsership or Get donations.?
Asked by Alexei14
Generally Sponsors always want to know what is in it for them. Sad to say but most companies do not just give out of kindness. You have to have something attractive to offer to a potential sponsor. Usually the best thing is a form of exposure that they cannot just go out and buy.

Where can applications for a 501c3 be obtained?
Asked by Trinice
By "501c3" (more accurately written as "501(c)3" or "501(c)(3)"), the questioner refers to a not-for-profit organization pursuant to section 501(c)3 of the Federal Tax Code of the United States of America. So, then, the short answer is that one gets one's application form from the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS). However, if one is asking such a question in a place like this, then one probably needs some serious professional help to make all the preparations. It's not something that someone just decides one morning, and then walks over to the IRS office and picks-up an application to do. One must first form one's corporation in one's state; and in said formation one must decide if one's not-for-profit organization is to be a public charity or a public foundation (those are the two types of not-for-profit corporations allowed by the IRS in the United States). All corporate documents must be crafted so as to reflect the proper corporate structure for a not-for-profit organization in compliance with all IRS rules for whichever kind of not-for-profit organization it is to be. And then, when one has all of one's i's dotted and t's crossed in that regard, then, and only then, does one even contemplate applying to the IRS to have one's corporation certified as "not-for-profit" pursuant to section 501(c)3 of the United States Tax Code. It's not brain surgery or rocket science, mind you; but its not for the faint-of-heart, either. Start here: http://www.irs.gov/charities/charitable/article/0,,id=136459,00.html

Another route you might want to consider is setting up a homepage for your group on a fundraising website.
Raising support online is much simpler and more tidy than raising funds via cash or check (most sites can link donations straight to your bank account through a merchant processor). And having a group page gives you a central place to post information, photos and let people know what you do - this helps you promote your cause to friends, family and whoever else you want.
There are plenty of sites these days that help groups meet their goals - here are some good options:
First Giving (www.firstgiving.com) is a solid one. They charge about 5% on donations raised and have a simple structure to set up your page (though you may have to be a certified non-profit to register with them).
If that's the case, another option is Empowered (www.empowered.org). They process about 3.5% on donations raised, offer lots of tools to help organize/fundraise, and I know they support all small groups, regardless of non-profit status.
And you could always try to send up your own PayPal account to link to you directly, but this is a little trickier and a bit inflexible.
Good luck getting your fundraising going
