Why do you need a legal entity? Maybe you could describe the project/website in more concrete terms – that would make it easier to give concrete recommendations.
As to why I need liability assistance: Honestly. I don’t know. Which is why it’s important. I don’t want to catch myself in a situation where I don’t know about some ridiculously obscure tax or business law and it screws me over.
It has nothing to do with the project. If I was doing a project for a non-altruistic purpose I’d be asking the exact same thing.
In general I am very uncomfortable with paperwork. I don’t know how to fill something out when every response is not applicable. Usually I just find someone who knows how to interpret paperwork and they figure out what the best response is.
I’m asking the most effective way to start a website-based nonprofit without having CEO-responsibilities meanwhile keeping the project’s integrity.
I’m asking because fiscal sponsorships seem to require almost an equal amount of effort as just starting an organization myself. Which is not realistic for me to complete paperwork and taxes by myself.
