Just a general word of caution. To be a non-profit requires an approved
application from the state PLUS a yearly "informational" tax return. It is
this failure to do a tax return that can cause the person(s) who sign the
checks to be responsible for any debts, workman's comp charges, unemployment
insurance premiums, health care premiums, etc, etc that some agency rules
should have been paid. The mentality is no non-profit return and is was
really a business for the check signer.

I am not a tax person, just someone who saw a friend bleed money having been
a volunteer treasurer for a "non-profit" shopping center association who had
a function where someone got hurt.
