What is a private non-profit corporation and how does one incorporate?
A private non-profit corporation that has tax exempt status under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code is a corporation formed for non-business purposes such as charitable, scientific, literary, educational or cultural purposes. In New York, a non-profit corporation of this type can be formed by filing a certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State pursuant to the Not-for-Profit Corporation Law, or where the corporation has educational purposes, by filing a petition with the Board of Regents to create an education corporation.
