Mmm…I’m pretty sure starting any nonprofit beats organizing homecoming. Getting the 501c(3) status takes an enormous amount of work in it of itself. It’s a lot more challening and difficult than reserving a gym and DJ, selling some tickets, and putting up a few decorations

Doesn’t seem terribly difficult. It does seem like an essentially solitary activity, at least in the beginning. Colleges like to see collaboration and teamwork- and I suppose an activity like this could become highly collaborative. I think in the ‘which is better’ competition, I would say neither is inherently better- it depends what someone does with them.

I can see that parent could easily set up a a nonprofit corp for their kids and then say it’s the kid’s. Difficult to rig an election and do the work of a SC president!
