Asked by: Kornelija Koneska  — 9 October, 2013

Please let me know how many founders can form non-profit organization (association) according to the law of Delaware, is there any limitation regarding the residences of the founders and what is the founding deposit?

Kornelija,

Non-profit organizations don’t have owners or shareholders – what they have is directors (who manage the organization) and officers (who run day to day operations).

To organize a non-profit you need to have a board of directors comprised of at least 3 different physical persons. I don’t believe there is any particular restriction on the place of residence of those directors, and I don’t think there is any deposit required, but keep in mind the costs of establishing a non-profit, including getting the tax-exempt status can run into many hundreds to over a thousand dollars.
