Southern California World Service (SCWS) became a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation in early 1990s, following discussions and a motion passed by the Group Representatives (GR). The decision to incorporate was mainly for the purpose of getting a non-profit discount on mailing our Bulletin newsletter (the largest expenses we had back then). Bylaws were required to legally register with the State of California. The SCWS Bylaws are a specific legal document and are not available in Spanish.
