3) Is the Cleft a non-profit?

Cleft Coffee is not a 501©3 organization.  We are a Limited Liability Company, specifically an S Corporation.  We are a for profit company operating within the marketplace.  We are a business structured to generate profit for organizations.  In deciding how to incorporate, there was no benefit to establishing ourselves as a non-profit organization as we don’t sustain our operation based on donations.  Although we exist to serve, being established as a for profit entity better supported the purposes of our organization.
