Legal Question in Business Law in California
Our non-profit wants to let another business use our campus. Can the other business also use our non-profit status?? The second is a church ministry also but does not have a business or formal non-profit status set up. What needs to be done?

You cannot share non-profit status. Either your non-profit must take over their operation and have it cease to exist as a separate entity, or it needs to get its own non-profit status.
A "status" is essentially non-shareable, any more than I can share my status as a single male. Organization #1 can merge with Organization #2 but there is no way on earth to extend an organization's status to another organization.
NO. You can rent them space or something like that, but they can not "USE" your stataus. They have to get their own, or formally become an affiliate, sub-division, partner, etc., in yours, following all the non-profit rules. If serious about getting legal help with this, feel free to contact me. .
