Business law Q re: 501(c)3 and LLC cooperation

Hello All,

I am unsure if an accounting forum would be more appropriate for this question. I apologize if this is the case but would appreciate any advice regarding the following situation:

Business A is an existing export LLC which deals primarily in used goods.

Would it be legal to create a 501(c)3 to accept donations of the same goods which Business A exports and then provide the used goods to Business A at cost? The mission statement of this 501(c)3 would be to facilitate recycling and to educate the local community about the importance of recycling. Tax deductions would provide businesses and individuals with a motive to donate their used goods.

The 501(c)3 would use Business A as their primary exporter. Business A would then charge the end recipient a shipping, handling,administrative and other fees, resulting in a net profit for Business A. The 501(c)3 would not profit but would charge Business A a fee to cover whatever expenses were incurred in acquiring the items (marketing, transportation, admin, etc.)

Business & Individuals ---- 501(c)3 Recycling Non-Profit ---- For-Profit Export LLC ---- Importer/Recipient

Any input would be greatly appreciated but please, no yes or no answers.

Thank You

HOA Board - Conflicts of Interest

My HOA has 56 units, there are 36

large units and 20 small units, the

HOA Board is comprised of 5

members, 4 who own large units,

who are putting forth a change from

% of sq foot to a level mo.

assessment, under a Davis Stirling

minimum i.e., greater than 50% of

the ownerships vote for passage, in

the above equation the small 20

units are being SLAM DUNKED by

the ''tyranny'' that is the HOA

board, who refuse to re-structure the

voting to make for a fair system prior

to testing issues, they are obviously

''self dealing'', shouldn't this A) be

recognized by the law firm who

penned the CCR proposed changes B)

shouldn't this Board recuse

themselves from voting , given they

are to benefit knowingly, by the

proposed change and violating a

section of the BY-Laws regarding

Conflicts of Interest C) shouldn't a

reputable Law Firm who represents

de facto the Shareholders of the HOA

admonish the Board

Please advise....
