In this episode with https://www.linkedin.com/in/farheenkhan786/ (Farheen Khan) we will be discussing on all the things you need to keep in mind before launching your non-profit organization, how to choose your board, funding ideas and the survival of your organization. I hope this interview will give you the basics or the foundation you need to move forward with your dreams in the non-profit sector.
