Topic: non profit

Must a non- profit use its name exactly as it is printed on the articles of incorporation?

Re: non profit

how far would the deviation be from the name on the articles of incorp ?

Re: non profit

It does not have the be exactlly as printed.  For example, it the name was Meds R Us Incorporated, you can use the name Meds R Us.  It the name is Meds R Us Non Profit Cooperative Incorporated, and you use Non Profit and Cooperative in the name, you must be incorporated as a cooperative and as a non profit.

Re: non profit

what if the name in the articles is "Meds R Us Collective Inc.",  can a person just use "Meds R Us" , in examples such as when applying for a biz license?

Re: non profit

I used the whole name in the license and permits.  Business cards, ad listings, etc. , we left off the Inc.
