Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Our goal is to become a more self-sufficient organization by securing our own 501c3, and increase our capacity for long term stability. We can use this to attract sponsors for the festival. We will know that the project is successful when we receive the status from the government/IRS.

Measurable Outcome(s)

There are numerous impacts for receiving our own 501c3. We now do not need a fiscal sponsor for any of our grants, and we are also able to reach out to other sponsors/donors for tax deductible donations for the festival. We secured our own copy of QuickBo
