There is a tax law distinction between a domestic charity (which gets both an income and estate tax deduction) and a foreign charity (which only gets an estate tax deduction). But, non-profits don't usually have owners and don't have to have members, so it doesn't make sense that there should be a distinction between the two on that basis. Also an incorporator could be the lawyer drafting the paperwork, e.g., and not the people who work for or control the non-profit going forward. | |
