I used Charitable Allies for my nonprofit. We worked closely with Robert Miller who was very responsive, flexible and patient! He made everything easy to understand when it came to us editing our bylaws and articles of incorporation. So grateful for this awesome service that meets the needs of nonprofits and at nonprofit affordable pricing!! Thank you again Charitable Allies!

We had Robert help us develop our non-profit called A Dwelling Place Inc. Which serves vulnerable families that have their children involved in foster care in most cases.

Charitable Allies was quick to respond, very friendly and professional always willing to answer any questions that we had. Normally it can take up to a year to get 501(c)(3) status, Robert was able to get ours approved within two weeks after submitting to the IRS. He was so thorough and complete, we didn’t even have to answer any questions.. Would definitely recommend to anyone seeking to start a nonprofit!

Charitable Allies has been extremely helpful in setting up my nonprofit. I worked specifically with Robert Miller who was excellent at providing beneficial advice, answering all of my questions, and responding in a timely manner. And the fact that CA serves only the nonprofit community and is itself a nonprofit is meaningful and admirable. Thank you, Charitable Allies for being my strong ally throughout this process!
