Hello CTB,
I am an research intern for a developing community health coalition. There seems to be a wealth of information on human resources and organizational structure. However, there seems to be a lack of information regarding the physical resources that a community coalition needs to house these human resources. If your organization could refer me to research regarding the concrete physical resources (I.E. space to have meetings in, space to store disaster relief or prevention materials, other material resources), or a sort of model supply logistics chain for health coalition building, it would be instrumental to our planning.

May an elected director of a corporation use his title when sending written communication when such action is contrary to official policy of the elected board? Does such use of his/her title imply board approval?
Thank you. |

Hello. Who do I speak to about a school principal not providing chairs for the elderly to sit in a gymnasium? We are playing basketball at a public school and there are no bleachers or seats in the gym and the principal is denying any chairs to come into the gym. She is also not providing chairs at the gym. Please advise. Thanks. |

Halo! My name is Sara and I am a project coordinator for the Mayan LAB www.mayanlab.com project in Guatemala. We are travelling to Guatemala on the 1st of March to conduct extensive research int he community of Tz'utujil Mayan People and Kiche Maya. As the case is based in a developing country and our community is prosecuted and abused post genocide- indigenous community of Guatemala, threatened by culture distinction, should we take some other, different aspects of research and community assessment into consideration, outside of the toolbox provided on your page?
I am looking forwards to hear from you more,
Regards
Sara |

Can you recommend some development models for community health promotion and prevention for a community group home? Women's and children housing only. The community group home just opened and we are implementing health promotion and prevention programs within in it. We're also organizing community programs that the general community of outside women can attend at the home. Any links resources you have would be appreciated. Tx |

I have a website hat I hope to show some day regarding local food. But in the meantime I just wanted to know if you know any folks who are trying to at least partially organize local food around backyard or at least sub acre gardening. It seems a lot of the local food work is to encourage farmers or community gardens. Both are great strategies, yet it seems like there are many advantages to a union of backyard gardeners which might include greater social cohesion. Any thoughts appreciated

I need a framework to guide the decision as to whether or not there is value in continuing a task force. Members of the task force are biased - based on their organization's role in the task force. I need to make the decision making process objective. Thank you. |

Hello!
I started a grassroots non-profit environmental group while in college. I registered my organization as Eco-Rooted, but have failed to keep up with paper work and fees- especially since we weren't making any money. I want to continue as a 501 c3 purely for the non-profit status so the public knows our intentions.
What is the best way to go about checking my organizations current status?
Also, If I didn't want to apply for non-profit status to avoid the paperwork and fees that come along with it, what is my next best option to keep this organization legitimate and recognizable by the state?
Thanks! |

I live in Salina KS, a small group, that formed year and half ago to remove fluoridation chemicals from the public water. We are getting ready for a petition drive,someone said we have to be a NON profit so we don't get in trouble with donated money. Is that true, or is it more so you can get discounts on advertising at radio stations?
Are there advantages to being non profit for 10 months or less? |

Hi,
This may sound like a bit of silly question but I'm keen to use to use a few bits from http://ctb.ku.edu/en/table-of-contents/participation/encouraging-involvement/identify-stakeholders/main this particular page in one of my assignments for university and would like to know who the author was and when the article was written please? Obviously I need to quote it and would love to know who the wise and wonderful person was that wrote about stakeholders.
Any information would be most useful.
Many thanks,

Dear Sir/Madam,
First, I would like to introduce myself. I am member of a Buddhist Youth Association.
My organization is a Buddhist Scout organization for youth. Other adults members and I are all volunteers. We teach a group of about 200 Vietnamese children from 7 to 17 years of age on every Sunday after the worship from 9 AM to 2 PM.
Our mission is to educate the children to become productive Buddhist citizens who would be able to contribute to the growth and thrive of the United States in the future.
Our activities are similar to Boys and Girls Scout, except Buddhism is the association's philosophy.
Secondly, I would like to ask for an advice. Recently, there are 2 different opinions/trends in my group:
1) Should we apply for a non-profit organization with tax-exempt status with State and Federal governments?
2) Should we only apply for a non-profit organization at the State level because we do not call for or apply for any governmental fund/grant ?
(Financial source: every youth members contributes $150.00/year ($12.50/month) for all the year-round activities including youth activities such as studying, leadership training, field trips, outdoor activities, cultural activities, camping, awards, and every Sunday meals).
On behalf of the organization, I would like to ask there is a mandatory to apply our organization at the federal level or not? Or it would be OK if we just maintain at the state level? Please help ! Your opinion, advice, and time are appreciated.
Wish you a joyful and peaceful holiday season.
Best Regards,
