Hello,
I would like to know, I would like to start a non-profit business { Thrift Store} in my area and do it take much to start up one? I know I would need a store front and also some employees not to mention some money save to pay bills for a few months. But since this is a non-profit business will there be any government funding that will help me out? And also since this is non-profit will the building that I will lease with option to buy have a large tax right off? And please give me any more information that will be helpful to me!

Thank-you,
Single mom with high hopes!

I will only suggest you go to www.sba.gov and look for information. There are many hurdles to what you want to do. I take it your wealthy and need the tax write off's ? May want to speak with your CPA about that. Good Luck !
