yes, Legal Zoom is unironically good and will work, it's made for idiots like us to set up Official Businesses for our idiot purposes

I'd recommend getting a PO Box, here's the list of steps you can follow for 'free':

https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/forming-nonprofit-corporation-delaware-36056.html

the reason legal zoom and poo poo exist is the same reason that turbotax or wahtever exist, sure you can do it yourself, but it's prboably going to take you more than $200 of time to unfuck up the kafkaesk bullshit that is Corporate Law

usually the hard part in all this is (a) finding people to provide a steady stream of contributions for (b) an actual charitable purpose, of which providing grants to members of the community in need clearly qualifies, but if you're doing this, it's like 2-3 hours of paperwork and a week waiting

edit: https://www.legalzoom.com/sem/biz/nonprofit.html, $100 package should be fine

you will set up a nonprofit charter and lay out the rules of your organization, which will adhere to Corporate Best Practices, like establishing some kind of program to parcel out the funds, and then you will Follow These Rules and record your poo poo in an actual online file storage somewhere. if you do this, you will not run afoul of the law

just try and pretend like you're Official and you will be, that's the whole secret to business

well first I would be very concerned that someone else commissioned a painting of your cats only to sell it back to you at auction, but i,m not here to judge, just to point out that if your charity program somehow is benefited by making that purchase, and your Non-Profit Board has no issues with it well then hell,, expenses are expenses

note that this is perhaps NOT In following with "Corporate Best Practices" mentioned earlier, as you would be hard pressed (right now) to explain how the paintings would be a critical expense

OR WOULD YOU???

edit: I'm a loving idiot and you were the oone who comissioned the paitings FOR THE AUCTION TO BUY THEM BACK LIKE DONALD TRUMP WHO IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OH MY HGsdafsdasd asds adsd

If you want an online quickbooks account that links to your newly formed cat painting charity checking I can just have my account add it an pay the monthly fees. Use a real bank and all the ins and outs get posted straight to contributions and capitalized cat painting collection automagically!

Hey Plinks a transgender homeless goon in Canada needs some help. They recently came out to their family and now they’re living under a bridge. I sent some money their way and Rastor was kind enough to remind me of your thread.

https://www.paypal.me/cunnilingius

I’ll send some funds to your potluck too.

e: okay became a monthly contributor.. only $3/month but it’s something
