Credit-proofing charity assets

Most charities and not-for-profit organizations are incorporated as non share capital corporations. These corporations are considered separate legal entities from their members or directors. This 'separateness' protects the members (and to a large extent directors) from being personally liable in the event the organization finds itself liable for damages as a result of a court finding.
