Requirement · part of 9.0.2.5. Choose a beneficiary and a project

9.0.2.5. Not commercial, and not a business

Required

Projects may not be of a commercial nature or for a business. That is not meant to disallow community institutions a council would otherwise accept: museums, service agencies, some homes for the elderly. Where a business is involved the test is whether the project primarily benefits the community rather than the profits.

Where this step comes from

  1. Guide to Advancement (2025), Section 9.0.2.5 · Projects may not be commercial or for a business, without disallowing community institutions such as museums and service agencies.
