There are many ways you can raise capital for your business. Check out how you can raise capital for your business without incurring debt:

Before you think of doing any sort of business, you must strengthen your savings account so that you can use the money for debt resolution options as well as use the money to capitalize your business. To make your savings account strong, you need to change your lifestyle and live frugally. By frugal, it’s meant that you must try to cut down unnecessary expenses and try to spend your money on important things only. Make a list of what you need and what you want. The things you need have to be bought first and the things you want can wait a bit. 

2.Work for extra : As the economic conditions are not that good, you need to have extra income to support your plan to start a business. Do you get salary for working over-time? Then work more. But if you’re not paid for working over-time, you can work elsewhere to earn some extra money. There are a lot of online jobs such as writing content, blogging and affiliate marketing. But if you’re not comfortable with working online, you can start your own tuition classes and teach students. You can also start earning by baby-sitting, dog-walking and many other things. 

3.Having a garage sale : If you have a garage sale, you can easily get money selling off old stuffs as well as have fun. There are a lot of old things that take a lot of space in our store-room. Clean up the store-room and you’ll get a lot of things in their working order. If you get an old clock in working condition, you may good price for it. Antiques have a lot of price.

“Fundraising is the gentle art of teaching the joy of giving.” – Hank Rosso

Do We Need So Many Non-Profit Organizations?

On the one hand, this is a great development – it means that as a society we are becoming more aware of a need to give to others and are even taking the necessary steps to ensure that we help others.

On the other hand, though, the presence of so many non-profits creates a unique problem – “giver burnout.”

Giver burnout happens when individuals get so many appeals for help – from large cancer societies, small women’s shelters, literacy organizations, and every possible non-profit group in-between that they feel overwhelmed and are less apt to contribute anything to anyone.  Even those individuals who do want to contribute have had to cut back on who they contribute to – there are simply too many groups requesting money and only so much disposable income any one person has.

Do you Need to Keep Creating Unique Fundraising Ideas?

In 2007, the National Association of Elementary School Principals found that 94 percent of school administrators rely on fundraisers to supplement district, state and federal money they receive.

That number has probably increased.  So the answer is yes!

You must work harder to get funding.  Where in the past groups often did well just by asking for money or organizing one big event to fundraise each year, now fundraising is big business.

Allison Jewell, vice president of American Heart Association – Miami/Fort Lauderdale Area, took time out of her busy schedule to discuss her gala fundraising ideas for non profits.

Homebuyer Tax Credit Extended & Expanded by Congress, Signed by President Obama!

Here’s the latest on the tax credit enacted into law by the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008.

Until the new legislation was signed into law, first time homebuyers could apply for and receive a tax credit in the amount of $8,000. when they purchased a home before the sunset date of November 30, 2009.

The new legislation, signed into law by President Obama on Friday, November 6, 2009

1. Extends that date until April 30, 2010 for civilians, and to April 30, 2011 for certain military buyers.
2. Increases the income limits so that millions more can qualify for the tax credit, and
3. Enacts a reduced tax credit of $6,500 for move-up buyers who are not first time homebuyers.

Stay On The Fence — You Have More Time To Watch The Real Estate Prices In Your Area Drop

The existing sunset date established by the Housing & Economic Recovery Act of 2008 has been extended to April 30, 2010 for most buyers.

Qualifying members of the military who served outside the borders of the United States at any time during the period from 1/1/2009 to 4/30/2010 will have an extra year to apply for the tax credit.

Income limits Before Signing:

The earlier legislation put caps on income for single buyers at $95,000.  Married buyers filing jointly capped out at $170,000.

Income limits After Signing:

The new legislation allows single wage earners to make up to $145,000, and married couples can earn up to $245,000.

$6,500 tax credit for Move-up Real Estate Buyers

The new legislation provides a tax credit incentive for people who are not first time homebuyers.  (A first time homebuyer is defined as one who has not owned a home in the last 36 months.)  You may qualify for this $6,500 tax credit if you owned and lived in your home for five consecutive years out of the past eight.

Who does that help?  Let’s say you sold your home in 2008.  You’re not a first time homebuyer, but if you meet the “five of eight” criteria, you can buy a move-up home and still qualify for the $6,500 tax credit.  Check with your tax professional for advice on your particular situation.

Other Requirements Before They Hand Over The Money

There are other rules of eligibility in the legislation.  (This list is not exhaustive, so you’ll want to check with your tax professional.)

• You can’t buy the home from a relative.
• You must be 18 or older
• You cannot be claimed by any other taxpayer as a dependent
• If you’ve sold a home, and that sale affects your eligibility, you must included the settlement statement (HUD-1) with your tax return.
• Most buyers (check with your tax professional) must live in the home for a minimum of three years or face a government demand for repayment.
