Nonprofit

Harpo and I have been considering applying to become a nonprofit organization. The LC(A) has a bright but expensive future; we plan to upgrade to the NXT system eventually, and there are other costs such as pneumatics that might arise.

There are twenty eight kinds of 501(c)(3)s, and although they are the most common kind of organization exempt from taxes they are not the only one.

Unfortunately, we would need to pay a $300 application fee, which would make the venture financially impractical.

Donations to some nonprofits, such as the 501(c)(4), are not exempt from taxes – also impractical for our purposes.

On the application form there is a checkbox for “regularly scheduled religious services” that we would need to check, as MegaBlock sacrifice is a ritual tradition.

On a side note, it seems that Coda can share documents remotely, most likely through the “Connect to” button located at the bottom left of the screen.
