Starting a nonprofit allows you to formalize your mission, raise funds, and operate with credibility. Whether you’re forming a charitable organization, educational group, foundation, or religious entity, the right legal structure is the first step to doing good—legally and effectively.
At Doc Prep Heroes, we make the nonprofit formation process fast, accurate, and stress-free.
A Nonprofit Corporation is a legal entity formed for a purpose other than generating profit. Instead of distributing income to owners or shareholders, a nonprofit uses its revenue to further its mission.
Most nonprofits seek 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status from the IRS, which allows them to accept tax-deductible donations and grants.
Incorporating protects the personal assets of directors, officers, and volunteers.
Forming a nonprofit is the first step toward applying for 501(c)(3) status with the IRS.
A registered nonprofit builds trust with donors, grantmakers, and the community.
Many public and private grants are only available to officially incorporated nonprofits.

Nonprofits are unique in that they are able to raise capital through acquiring special grants, and that they can receive tax-exempt status. For charity organizations, or those focused on serving the greater good of their communities, it is usually the only logical choice of business structure.
There are no restrictions regarding who can form a Nonprofit organization.
As most Nonprofits are typically founded with the main goal of benefitting the general public, Nonprofits can become "tax exempt" entities. This means that they are free from paying a vast majority of the taxes that are levied on other types of organizations.
However, Nonprofits are not granted tax-exempt status automatically upon formation. After the organization is successfully formed with its state, it must file Form 1023 with the IRS to receive tax-exempt status. There may also be some state-level filing required to become tax exempt at the state level, depending on where your organization is located.

The typical rule is that Nonprofits must have at least three board members to receive tax-exempt status from the IRS. However, it is possible to form a Nonprofit with only one founder.
