Incorporating Non-Profits

It is important that non-profits and charities consider incorporation. It provides limited liability for the members and directors and a structured framework for corporate governance and holding property. We assist non-profits and charities with the incorporation and organization of the corporation. Whether it is setting up a Canada Not-for-profit Corporations Act (“CNCA”) corporation or an Ontario Not-for-Profit Corporations Act (“ONCA”) corporation we can help clients think through many issues although probably the most important one is membership and control of the entity. If you wish to retain our law firm to assist your organization with incorporation, you can contact us.
