"We hired Erin to form our nonprofit organization and complete the necessary documents at the state and federal level. She was a true professional, patient, informative, easy to work with and talk to about our concerns and issues. We're actually sad that the process is over! Erin completed our federal 501c3 form while guiding us to create our state documents internally. She always responded to our questions right away and was patient as we navigated our lives, professionally, personally and philanthropically. We highly recommend anyone starting a non profit organization work with Erin!"

What Are Cumulative Dividends?
If a dividend is sharing company profits to shareholders, then a cumulative dividend is a distribution made to the holders of special "preferred" shares regularly. It is unrelated to company profits.
Regular or "noncumulative" dividends are voluntary. This means the Board of Directors has the option of awarding them. This usually depends on how the company has performed each year.
