Had no experience with forming a nonprofit
I was referred to Instant Nonprofit from a friend and went after it right away. Very nervous I wasn’t sure what to expect , I honestly thought it was going to be some AI ran system that just made things happen with little to no human support. From the very beginning I made a mistake in the process as me and technology don’t really get along lol. I typed into the online chat not expecting any kind of helpful response. To my surprise and relief Liz actually called me and reassured me that real people that care are behind the scenes. She is very personable kind and knowledgeable with all things nonprofit. Then when I went to open my bank account for Practicing Peace Project and couldn’t access the needed document she got me an email within 30 minutes, now I can start helping combat veterans and their families access and sustain lasting inner peace. So very grateful to Liz and INP and look forward to working with them in the future!

Eddie, thank you so much for taking the time to share this - and for trusting us with something as meaningful as the Practicing Peace Project🙏 What you described is exactly why we do what we do. You came in nervous, unsure what to expect, and honestly? That's more common than most people realize. A lot of first-time founders assume starting a nonprofit has to be overwhelming, expensive, or that they'll get lost in a system with no one to turn to. You proved that it doesn't have to be that way. We love that Liz showed up for you the way she did - picking up the phone, making it personal, and getting you what you needed in under 30 minutes. That's not an accident. That's the standard we try to hold ourselves to. Real people, real support, real care - every step of the way. We're not perfect - but we are trying :) And now, because you took that leap, combat veterans and their families will have a pathway to lasting inner peace. That's not a small thing. That's a life-changing mission that almost didn't happen because the "getting started" part felt too intimidating. We're so glad you pushed through. If you're reading this and you're on the fence - wondering if it's too complicated, too costly, or if you'll be left to figure it out alone - Eddie's story is your answer. The hardest part is starting. We'll handle the rest. Welcome to the INP family, Eddie. Please stay in touch. We're honored to be part of your journey 🚀 Nonprofit Success Team InstantNonprofit 🚀
