How to create a Non-profit Organization

Follow the steps below to create your non-profit organization:

1. Sign in or create a Race Roster Account

2. Click Create an Organization.

3. If you are creating a new Organization, complete the required fields:

4. Select that your Organization is a charity/non-profit and the non-profit organization category.

Important Notes:
- Once a non-profit organization is linked to an event and a donation has been processed for your Organization, you cannot reverse this selection.
- If you already have an event-owning organization with a Stripe profile labelled as a Company entity, you cannot edit the Organization Details and check this box. Instead, you will need to create a new Non-profit Organization and create a new Stripe profile, selecting Non-profit as the entity type.

5. Click Create.

Once your charity/non-profit organization is created, you will be directed to your events list.

This lists all events that your Organization is associated with. It will give your organization staff and admin a complete view of historical and current event partners. You can quickly access the Fundraising settings for each event by clicking the Action button and selecting "View."

This is where you will see the payment profiles associated with your non-profit organization across events. Payment profiles are viewable by all organization staff and admins, however they can only be managed by organization admins.
The first payment profile listed will be treated as the default payment profile, meaning that when your organization is added to an event, this is the payment profile that is associated by default.
If you need to change the payment profile for a specific event for any reason, you can do so from the Fundraising settings at the event level.
If your payment profile is associated with a Company or Individual entity in Stripe, you will not be able to link your Non-profit Organization with an Event. Instead, you will need to create a new Stripe profile as a Non-profit entity before linking the organization.

This is where you can manage your organization staff.
Note: Staff access is still managed on the event level. Fundraising staff members will need to be granted access to each of your event partners to access the necessary settings and information.
