Protect Yourself from Liability
Educational, scientific, religious, and charitable organizations typically form nonprofit corporations to provide limited liability for the people involved in their management. Incorporating your nonprofit association can help you to establish the legal protection that separates your personal savings and possessions from the activities of the corporation.
Though other types of nonprofit organizations exist, most of our customers seek 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status through the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The Company Corporation can help you form a nonprofit corporation in any state or the District of Columbia. We do not currently assist in filing tax exemption applications with the IRS but we can obtain your Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN) online.
