What is Non-Profit Corporation?

A non-profit organization is an organization that does not distribute its surplus funds to owners or shareholders, but instead uses them to help pursue its goals. Examples of nonprofit organizations include charities (i.e. charitable organizations), trade unions, and public arts organizations. Most governments and government agencies meet this definition, but in most countries they are considered a separate type of organization and not counted as nonprofit.

Re: What is Non-Profit Corporation?

I want to point out that many people are not aware of the fact that nonprofit corporations, in order to really enjoy from the benefit of not being taxed, need to file for 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, which could cost several thousands of dollars in legal fees to a specialist who can prepare this application correctly, which kind of beats the purpose of the whole thing.

Re: What is Non-Profit Corporation?

Non-profit organization must be created by legislation in the government organization, or the court, and the Registry of Commerce, which is not intended to be a profit to owners or shareholders. It differs from a non-profit society in a meaningful way, because that is built to give a profit to owners or shareholders.
