Citation please? I have never heard this before in any other forum
(and I deal with a number of not-for-profit groups.)
Not to mention that your comment is absurd on its face; are charities
going to find their non-profit tax status in jeopardy because their
income comes from 'non-members'??
Cite it or retract it.
