Herman, trust me, I personally don't want any of the headaches involved in registering a non-profit organisation.
However, AFAIK, the South African law requires it when you have regular meetings of more than a certain number of people. It also makes it easier receiving donor funds. I don't want this either, but it might be necessary from a legal point of view. Kind regards from Heinz -- Dr. Heinz M.

We should probably first see how things go before deciding if it is necessary to register a non-profit organisation. Groete, Herman Dr Heinz M. Kabutz wrote: > Yes, absolutely - great idea.
