What are the steps to form a non-profit corporation?
Following the selection and reservation of a corporate name, the next step is to file non-profit articles of incorporation (sometimes memorandum) with the proper government department. If you intend on applying for charitable status, it is important that the articles contain the required clauses to make sure your articles will qualify for charitable status (see below). The corporation must comply with corporate formalities and hold annual meetings of directors and members. Bylaws must be adopted for the corporation. Documents that help you comply with these corporate formalities are contained in our packages.
