The thing about this is, If I was to go to schoolforge site and want to
donate for the cause, I would want to donate TO SchoolForge I would want
to know that SchoolForge was the one who was handling the cash not some
other non-profit. The actual paper work for becoming a non-profit is not
that bad albeit pain in the rear, and the paper work that comes month
after month is a pain but is this not where we need to go with
schoolforge. 

I just think that if I was to go to donate to schoolforge but OSEF was
the one handling the monies then why did I not just donate to OSEF
reguardless of the Fund that OSEF has set aside for schoolforge which I
assume is the way it would be proposed.

I think that if this change is going to come it needs to come by
SchoolForge itself becoming a non-profit entity.
