Coalition

How might high school groups keep connected in school and in the years after?




Some of you are, were still am members of High school alumni groups what happens to them, could they become a greater organization? 

Thinking of an affiliate of all present and past students who might keep an attachment through the years. 

Assuming you might have set up this alumni group and you have a few others that help doing different things, what happens to the group when you guys run out of energy or are no longer able to play.

 Any thoughts of how to pass the group down through generations that will follow?

 Fraternities and sororities are structured so people are members in school and remain the rest of their lives.

(Fraternities and sororities, also referred to as Greek-letter organizations (GLOs) or, collectively, as "Greek life") 

In universities these groups still exist long after the founders and original students have been gone. 

1) So is there some government laws or registration that is involved in these groups?

2) What procedures do they use to keep their organizations going through the generations.. how do they do that? 

I would guess some of you know people in such an organization in school or after who might find some info how it might be done.

3) I am guessing there are multiple students from school that became lawyers that might be guides 

4) How could a high school collation create such an organization?

I can not imagine collage students being able to pay for the houses,  people who administrate their groups . The school? Who?

5) in order to keep the ball rolling through the years there would likely need to be a paid administration no different than other organized groups, having a mountain of volunteers with paid staff that keeps things going.
Fund raisers, contributions .. keeping track of the $$$ would need an accountant. Having a friend with a kid needing medical support, I told her about bank accounts .. when a certain amount was in it, anyone could send money to it with checks n apps. With any money going in an organization account and only be taken out that way there would be an account of what went in and every place or person it was paid to. 

I can imagine why many businesses would be sponsors for such groups .. Finance would take planning.

I thought if there were other lhs well known grads to get involved it would attract lots more people on start up so I asked who some were HERE .


On an imaginary fishing trip.. to plant the seed that might grow  😋

An example of a non profit is The Junior Achievement. Some of the strings tied to them here

I sent them a message with the concept thinking they might have a reason to check out the possibilities .

***

Yes after looking at non profit groups it looks like high school students (present and past) can set up a non profit group.
Registered with the government as tax exempt (I think) then you would think about structure .. votes on a board maybe. Not a simple task, I am guessing there is a high school business class where a teacher would guide you to the questions to ask



How to chose who would set the agenda .. election .. hmmm
