The warehouse project is going pretty well, with a good group of people, lots of project activity, and almost at the black line for finances. Our next big question is, do we go non-profit? In an ideal world, our LLC could go to classes on how to do this, ask questions about what we need to do to be in line with all the laws and regulations from an experienced teacher, and hand in a single application packet with a small fee once ready.

I am told this is not how it works.

We are lucky that one member has done some background research on what we need to do, what laws are really important to research, and what benefits and difficulties we can expect. But it will take calling different offices to ask questions, probably some legal counsel, some changes in how finances are handled, and probably more work for me as we change our spreadsheets and procedures. The benefits would be helpful however, and so we’re slowly moving forward. In the meantime, if there are any experts out there on moving to non-profit status in the Centennial State, let me know.
