The 501st Legion

My passion for nonprofits partially comes from my experience working for two separate nonprofits, and partially from me wanting to help make a difference in this world. My time at PACS made me reflect on the two previous jobs I had at nonprofits and how all three intended to make a difference in this world. Furthermore, I pondered what the impact was of a key difference on the two nonprofits I previously worked. The key difference is that one was a Christian organization, the other was not. PACS showed me a middle ground of sorts, were the organization itself is not Christian or religious even though it is created with values that are held by

The 442nd Regimental Combat Team was a segregated U.S. Army. They fought in World War II. It was made up of Japanese Americans that were from the Mainland and Hawaii. The men from Mainland thought that the Hawaiians didn’t speak English very well. There was a conflict between both groups and got sent to a detention camp. The 442nd learned about teamwork very fast. They decided they would complete every assignment that came their way. Frank Hachiya wrote a letter to his 8th grade teacher before he was killed. In addition, he talked about all his regrets in life and how he wasted most of his time. At his funeral, his teacher read the letter.

The purpose of this brief is to inform Marines on the Marine corps order for uniforms, appearance, and wear. Upon completion of this brief I am confident that you will have the knowledge and skills to properly wear the approved Marine Corps MCCUU uniform or “cammies” as commonly known.

Throughout my career in the social sector I worked with a variety of for-profit companies; over the last few years I’ve noticed interesting trends. Corporations are changing how they structure and evaluate philanthropic partnerships and fewer and fewer organizations are opting to donate through traditional methods. Social entrepreneurs are even integrating philanthropy into their business models. Just consider, big names such as Toms and Seventh Generation and newer start ups like Bombas (a sock company that donates socks one-for-one for every pair they sell). One-time event sponsorship and foundation giving seems to be losing ground to newer, innovative community investment strategies. These shifts have encouraged non-profits, including

Currently the target base is corporate Americans who are searching for a community event or hobby happening in the local area. For the fundraising, the target base is largely captive and patrons will be supportive from family member to coworkers are representing. Many patrons’ vendors will be willing to serve in any capacity and will be able to provide, however, professional services and resources and have the edge in being relatively supportive and satisfying. No other patrons are particularly expected to be present at these events at the capacity as the favorable sponsors who have a drive to serve, however, if there was the presence of another charitable organization serving the same exact purpose it may actually be beneficial in the same way. As for the psychographic make-up of the target base market, a large number of people attending these events are expected to be medium income families

I would like to focus on one non-profit organization that has been doing very well in the recent years. The name of the organization is St Jude Research Hospital, which deals with the cure and treatment of children suffering from catastrophic diseases. In the five decades, it has been operational, the mortality rate has gradually reduced therefore saving lots of lives. St Jude started its operations in 1962. Danny Thomas was the one who started the organization and was helped by two other close friends (Pui, Pei, Pappo, Howard, Cheng, Sandlund and Gajjar, 2012).

Sons of Confederate Veterans proposed a specialty plate designed that entailed the confederate flag. The message behind the confederate flag can be viewed as offensive to citizens. Sons of Confederate Veterans filed a suit against the Chairman and Board stating that it violated the Free Speech Clause. The District Court entered judgment but The Fifth Circuit reversed holding that Texas specialty plate designs are private speech and that the Board engaged in constitutionally forbidden viewpoint discrimination. Texas specialty plates constitutes government speech, the content in which the State is free to control, thus based on the dissenting Judge`s remarks, the State was entitled to refuse

This past month we put on a global awareness project. My society advisor and I discovered this foundation, The Pulsera Project. The organization sought to help individuals working in textiles gain freedom from their poor conditions and give them respectable jobs making bracelets, referred to as pulseras, that are sold all over the world. So, we joined immediately in the cause selling bracelets at our school, telling our peers about the Nicaraguan workers lives, and helping to provide financial relief. Our society decided to not use this as a fundraiser, but instead send all our profits back to the Pulsera Project. Not only do I help others through clubs, my high school sports teams I play for also run sports camps over the summer to help smaller child learn the game and improve their skills. The players, like me, help mold and sculpt the younger generations of

The Silver Legion of America, also known as the Silver Shirts, were founded in Asheville, North Carolina in 1933 a few years after Pelley left Hollywood. It is not known exactly how many members were a part of the organization; however scholars estimate that at its peak the organization had about 15,000 members, with a large majority in the Pacific Coast. The organization accepted membership from men and women and it contained a majority of white-collar workers, including Protestant clergyman and attorneys. Blue-collar workers were also accepted in the organization, along with former members of the Ku Klux Klan, and Scottish Rite Shriners. The women in the organization were called “Nurses” and they were responsible for caring, and nurturing

One major benefit of being a non-profit organization is that you are exempt from taxes. Although, in the state of Louisiana they do require that non-profits pay sales tax on any purchases that are made within the state (Louisiana, 2014). The Golden Wave Clinic has recently been certified to be eco-friendly. We are Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certified, which means that we save energy, water, and resources and generate less waste (LEED, 2018). In order to cut cost, we have a lot of volunteer positions available for those who are eager to donate their time and help out to decrease the rate of STD in Baton Rouge. We have partnered up with the local high school and those who are in the medical program will volunteer twice

The Angle Ambassadors help veterans and their families with life’s struggles. It may mean driving them to appointments, helping a family pay their heat bill, or assisting a veteran in finding employment. This is all done through community donations and while working at Fletch’s, I joined forces with them to organize a silent auction to benefit their non-profit. I was responsible for collecting auction items and handling the marketing. The one-day event was very successful raising over ten thousand

During the Korean War, many American individuals feared for their safety, especially the safety from communist rule. The Second Red Scare that occurred in the late 1940s to 1950 was the result of fearful communist rule in the United States. However, President Truman took immediate action to ensure there is no Communist agents or spies lurking within that nation. As of March 21, 1947, President Truman signed the Loyal Order which was set out for federal government workers to undergo background identification checks for individuals participating in Communist activity or identified as a Communist. Thousands of individuals opposed the Loyal Order noting that the Loyal Order went against their rights, based on the First Amendment.

When I think non-for-profit that means you are trying to help out people in the city mine is going to be helping teens with disablists to get in shape and gain muscle. The name of my organization is “Live Fit-Live Life” It will show other people that the gym can be for everyone and that’s what I like about helping out others at the end of the gym session they are happy. My mission statement is to help kids with disablists be more open to the gym and find workouts that they can do to stay fit and live a happy life. When joining, my target will be more around teens because that is the age group I like to work with but other can come to the gym and learn new things when watching the classes. My personal role is to teach the teens what workouts

A not for profit organization is a corporation or an association that conducts business for the benefit of the general public without shareholders and without a profit motive (Legal, 2013).” There are immense community benefits as a not-for-profit generally accepts everyone regardless of ability to pay. Nonprofit organizations are granted tax-exempt status which helps them to provide services to the public and are expected to be effective managers of their finances as well as being efficient (Financial Management, 2010). In doing so, they can gain exemptions from federal and state incomes taxes and have the ability to solicit tax-deductible contributions (Financial Management, 2010). Organization must follow legal financial
