Unincorporated?

What is an unincorporated non-profit organization?
It is pretty simple, it means "not organized and
maintained as a legal corporation" - yet...

We had to make a decision - do we spend precious money and time organizing this foundation so that it can say your contribution is 'tax-deductable' or do we simply launch it and build it as we go along?

10% of all gross sales from primary funders is being donated to this foundation and until there is substantial accrued revenue to justify such a huge energy expenditure we decided to build it as we go.

Therefore any contributions made to the foundation at this point are NOT tax-deductible.
If this is a big turn off then we recommend contacting our member communities that have a 501(c)3 status and contributing directly to them - which is where the money is going anyway.
Just be sure to tell them 'Green Fire' sent you!
