Anyone can buy a .org domain and say they're non-profit, but it's probably a good idea to register with government offices so you can be official about it and even apply later to be a tax exempt non-profit. Rules are different depending on what state you're on, but it's going to take a while for your tax exemptions to go through (think years) so it's a good idea to make sure you read the rules carefully now. http://www.nonprofits.org/ is a good resource, and they even have some state-dependent information.

thanks, i appreciate it

I've been in the advice column over five years now so I think I've pretty much heard it all... the love, the hate, the random insanity. I don't take it too seriously, so I'm not always giving the best advice, but my column is fun to read!

I am a 23 year old electrical engineer, a feminist, a Christian. I don't know everything but I can sure pretend to.

Disclaimer: Now that I'm on advicenators I'm getting even more questions every day. It's fast and easy for me to answer them, yes, so at least I'm answering something now, but if your question contains the words "there's this guy that I like..." chances are I won't get around to it. I'm only answering interesting questions that I haven't answered before. Register at the site and ask everyone for advice if you must have an answer, because if people read my column and boring love advice was all they found, they'd never come back.
