[quote=Anonymous]Yes we did this. Started early like 9th grade. Not super early. Last kid continued it and frankly using it on resumes for employers still. Had a law firm set up as a non profit. Did actual work to raise money like car washes and gift wrapping. Kids all at Ivies. Others I know are in at Dartmouth etc. Clearly an angle to distinguish your application. We went to a foreign country over spring break and bought items there with the money to deliver to children ourselves. I do think it has become a crowded trade. Meaning more and more people doing it. Really important to get press coverage if you can. Key is to show something tangible. Apparently level 1 non profits that are started raise like $25,000-$50,000 or accomplish something nationally. We raised around $10,000 but had international impact. We were probably tier 2. Combined with other tier 2 activities. [/quote]
