I'm Starting A Grant for Homeschooled Apostolics
I am considering starting an annual college grant for Homeschoolers.
I know, I know... we will consult an attorney etc., but I want some input from others - especially those with legal experience.
Can we write anything into the grant we want?
Like to be considered the student:
must have been Homeschooled for the past two years?
must be Oneness Pentecostal?
of the local church applicants given priority?

Re: I'm Starting A Grant for Homeschooled Apostoli
More questions...
Should I fund the account for several years and invest the funds before awarding the first grant?
Or simply fund and disperse as we go, realizing this will effect the groweth of the funds.
It would be nice if we could accumulate enough to have it fund it'self through groweth.

Re: I'm Starting A Grant for Homeschooled Apostoli
Would you consider awarding it to adults who are continuing their education through something similar to homeschooling? I believe it is called "cruiseschooling". It is a wonderful educational tool to learn about the ocean, nature, sand, and physiology. If so I would like to apply for my wife and myself.

Re: I'm Starting A Grant for Homeschooled Apostoli
Why not set up a 501 c3 non profit foundation that would allow others to contribute to the scholarship fund.....

Right. It most certainly it will be. For my own benefit and so others can give tax free.
This is in part why I am asking the questions concerning our discretion

I can't believe how many of you minimize and belittle the cruise/beach ministry. Shame on you!
If the grant was large enough I could guarantee you an Acts 2:38 door hanger put on the doorknob of every cabin on the ship!

Yeah and MOW promised us an Acts 2:38 tatoo on leg somewhere between the knee and the speedos!

Re: I'm Starting A Grant for Homeschooled Apostoli
Serious question: I know we have a few legal folk on here...
Since this will be non profit and for a good cause, even benefiting the church, is anyone out there qualified and willing to handle the legal work pro bono. I am sure we could work it as a tax break for value of the services rendered.
