Hey 4chan,
༼ つ ಥ_ಥ ༽つ What do?

I'm here because I thought I had a pretty good sense of how to get the startup costs for our nonprofit .. and right now im at a loss with my defeat today.

We created a 2 year plan for fundraising based on a $4000 startup costs

i thought i could do a small business loan and pay a down payment so i didn't cover the start up costs completely myself. ..

Basically i got $4000 in cash, cant get a loan for admin and office costs, and grant writers.


Today was the day we were going to get a loan and unfortunately my bank said startup loans are the hardest to get for nonprofits.. and im pretty much out of luck there so.. I applied for a credit card that could suffice but my credit is bad due to health insurance crap.

im not going to talk about my companies services because our ability to raise money is not in question, we just need startup capital to ease the transition and workspace.


Ive been waiting on the SBDC for a long time and it is a option i know of, but its just rough when time is ticking and they just keep you on the backburner.
