Common Questions About Forming a Non Profit

Still have questions? Talk to an attorney!

A Non Profit Corporation is a state incorporated legal entity formed to serve a charitable, educational, religious, scientific, or community purpose rather than to generate profit for owners. It operates with the same legal structure as a for profit corporation: a board of directors, bylaws, formal governance. But its revenue is reinvested into the mission rather than distributed to shareholders.

Anyone building an organization around a mission rather than a profit motive. Community organizations, educational programs, religious institutions, advocacy groups, and social service providers are among the most common.
