As a general matter, an LLC is not the preferred vehicle for a non-profit entity, because an LLC, by definition, has "members" who are effectively partners; a non-profit may not have any profit-participating owners. In New York, the vehicle of choice is a corporation organized under the New York Not For Profit Corporation Law.
