​+1 for Moritz's idea of considering a fiscal sponsor (including possibly
his organization), after you all meet and really nail down your mission
statement, goals, how you are different from other organizations,​ how you
would like to see yourselves grow (including different kinds of diversity),
etc. Fiscal sponsors typically cost about 5% to 10% of the organization's
budget--but can remove many headaches. I've worked closely with fiscal
sponsors for a number of years and would be happy to talk more offline.

Cheers,
