Should You Register a Not-For-Profit or a Charity?

The tricky part for many people who want to register a charity or non-profit is to figure out which one they should register.

Often, there are elements of the organization and it’s goals that could define them as either one. If this is the case, it’s a good idea to speak to a professional, who can help you to weigh the pros and cons of each.
It can be a little harder to register a charity because it involves applying to the CRA for charitable organization status.

This is not required for non-profits. But, although both are usually exempt of the requirement to pay income tax, non-profits cannot issue tax receipts when they collect funds. Which can make it trickier to raise funds.

On the other hand, charities have spending requirements. This means that they are legally required to donate a predefined portion of the money they collect to qualifying organizations.

Meet Dov Goldberg, J.D.

Hi, I’m Dov Goldberg. As a Charity Lawyer working exclusively with Charities and Not-for-Profits, I help founders and directors register their charity and/or not-for-profit without dealing with complicated legal forms, by taking care of all the paperwork so that you can successfully register your charity/NPO, have more freedom, peace of mind, and spend more time doing what you love.

In 2015, after working for several years in a boutique firm focused on corporate, business, and charity law, I took the leap to start a Law Firm dedicated exclusively to Charities and Not-for-Profit Corporations, so that I could help Charity Founders, Directors and Not-for-Profit Entrepreneurs register and operate their organizations on a solid and stable legal footing and so that I could work in a legal field where I am inspired daily by our amazing clients (…one of the best decisions I’ve ever made).
