There are a lot of non-profit corporations. In fact, you may find that most of them are, because the people who run them don't want to be saddled with liabilities if something goes wrong. Think of Habitat for Humanity building homes without liability protection for its board members. So if the non-profit is registered with the SOS as a corporation, LLC, etc., it's a legal entity customer and you'll need certification of a control person (since there are no owners and since the reg says you need to get the control person only).
