Leathercrafting Nonprofit Community Survey - We Value your Input!


Recommended Posts

Posted

Saying "nonprofit" implies actual tax exempt status, which most charitable grant makers require in order to receive funding. A quick search shows lots of Guilds and clubs but no actual tax exempt organizations. What I was wondering about was how a person would structure a pubic benefit corporation to "preserve and promote the leathermaking craft" and also qualify for tax exempt status.

I don't dispute that many large non profits are bloated monstrosities more interested in self preservation and expanding their own bureaucracy than in doing any real public good.
