These Bullet-Proof Articles of Incorporation are the ultimate legal foundation for your nonprofit—because when challenges arise, this is the document the courts and the IRS will reference first. Unlike generic templates, this version is designed to lock in your authority as the founder and protect the vision you built from being rewritten or hijacked. It enshrines your reserved powers over mission changes, Class A Director appointments, and even dissolution, ensuring no Board vote can remove you or undo your legacy without your explicit consent. Lean yet powerful, these Articles meet all North Carolina and IRS 501(c)(3) requirements while setting your rights and special powers in stone. If the bylaws outline “how” your organization runs, these Articles of Incorporation legally define “who” controls it—and that control stays with you.
