A relative of mine has been volunteering at various convalescent homes for years. He's soon retiring from his full-time job and would like to start giving bible studies and such to the elderly at Adult Day Care Centers as well as continue his volunteer work. These places advertise that they provide this service so I believe there is some money set aside in their budget for ministers. Would you advise that his small group become incorporated as a non-profit or a different type of corporation? He would be using the proceeds for living expenses after retirement since this is what he wants to spend his life doing. And if he's making a wage from this, he wants to do it legally and pay taxes. Please help as we're both unfamiliar with non-profits and what is allowable as far as spending money earned. Thank you. :)
