I’m hoping to set up a project for developing an MS Windows open-source program. Is there an organization for Microsoft Windows open-source software development which is similar to the GNU/Linux organization?

No. Windows doesn’t have one because it’s a retail system you have to pay for the reason GNU/Linux exists is because the software is free.
Don’t know if this will help

As far as i know you can lease portions of the windows operating system from microsoft for review, you will however not be allowed to publish the source in any form wether you have modified it or not, si in short, NO.
