I am considering incorporating an outreach program that I run. It's running based, in that we donate used running shoes to needy groups in the US and abroad. I want to incorporate so that I can take donations, apply for grants, and give people who donate shoes (or money) the opportunity to take a tax-deduction.
Are there any lawyers/legal types on non-profit founders who have experience in incorporation? How long does it take, and how much does it cost? If anyone has a contact who would be willing to take on a pro-bono project like this, I would greatly appreciate it.
Regards,
Nick
