No money will go to group members' pockets. That's the idea of an
amuta, or an NPO (NON-profit organization).

The idea about creating the amuta is to have an official, legal status.
This would enable us to deal with companies and get donations without
legal difficulties, and would ensure that people understand we're serious.
That, at least, is my opinion.
