 Foundation Status

 Grant Goodyear, one of our active foundation trustees, recently gave
 an update on the status of the Gentoo foundation on his blog. The
 Gentoo Foundation does still exist, and the required paperwork to
 reinstate our NFP status has been filed. For more information, you can
 read Grant's post on the gentoo-nfp mailing list.

 Any help will be appreciated?

It literally means Not For Profit and is a term used for charities to 
distinguish them from commercial (being run for profit) businesses.
