A non-profit organization (NPO) is a group of individuals or legal entities pursuing a non-profit objective. An NPO must consist of at least two people. Members of an NPO cannot receive any financial benefits from it.
Once a joint project has been defined, the statutes of the non-profit organization must be drafted. The statutes represent the basic principles of the organization's structure.
The non-profit organization has its own legal personality, independent of that of its members. This means that it has its own rights and obligations. The members have limited liability and do not bind their personal assets to the fate of the non-profit organization.
