OperationOperating A Nonprofit
The status of a nonprofit organization comes with a tremendous number of benefits, along with additional legal obligations that must be met. Nonprofits face the unique position of having to deal with similar legal issues as any other business, including contracts, employees, liability protection and more, but with the added necessity to adhere to the legal restrictions that must be met in order to qualify for their status. The actions of nonprofit organizations are closely monitored, and serious penalties ensue when the laws governing them are violated.
