Frequently Asked Questions about Nonprofit Incorporation
What is nonprofit incorporation?
Nonprofit incorporation is the process of legally establishing a nonprofit organization as a separate legal entity. The process involves registering the organization with the appropriate government authority and fulfilling certain requirements to obtain nonprofit status.
Why does nonprofit incorporation matter?
To win grants, you must first be eligible to apply. Every grant has a set of eligibility criteria an entity must meet to qualify for funding. If a proposal is submitted from an unqualified source, the proposal will be disqualified by the funder. Being incorporated as a nonprofit matters because the vast majority of grants available in the United States have strict eligibility requirements. Grant eligibility is primarily open for local government and nonprofit organizations. Without nonprofit incorporation status, you’re greatly limited as to the number and variety of grants you could compete for to win
Can I apply for grants without a nonprofit?
Yes. Grants do exist for businesses and individuals. The COVID forgivable loans and grants are a good example of funding opportunities for these types of entities. The grants are rare, however, and represent a very small percentage of grants you could otherwise win if incorporated as a nonprofit.
What kinds of nonprofits are eligible for grants?
Nonprofit organizations across various sectors and missions are eligible for grants, depending on the specific criteria of each grant program. Some common types of nonprofits that may be eligible for grants include education institutions, healthcare organizations, social service agencies, youth services, and many more!

“A few years ago, the team from GrantWriters flew out to San Diego to assist us with our very first grant write. The first thing they did was take care of the registration for SAM and Grants.gov. GrantWriters has been managing our accounts for several years now. It’s so nice knowing our grant registrations are in good hands with GrantWriters. I can’t imagine trusting anyone else with this important element of grant submission.”
