For the curious
Golden Hint, in a minute.
Most charities in the United States are small, and many have no paid staff at all. They're run by volunteers who are expert in their cause but have to learn bookkeeping, law, fundraising and marketing on the fly. Meanwhile, the knowledge they need already exists, trapped inside other charities. Golden Hint lets charities trade it.
A skills exchange
Charities offer what they're good at and ask for what they need. One hour of help earns one credit; one credit buys one hour.
A guide to starting a charity
The most complete, honest guide we could write, from the first idea to the first hire.
A library
Plain-English guides and templates for every hard part of running a charity.
Free, from a foundation
Golden Hint is an initiative of the Rouben Malian Memorial Foundation Inc, a New York 501(c)(3).
