Your change seems to claim that all local chapters are nonprofit legal entities. Even if this were true at the moment - which I'm not sure about -, it is not required that a new local chapter must be nonprofit. The [LC template agreement](https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Local_Chapters/Template_agreement) only says they must be not-for-profit. Your change is therefore misleading. It may well be that OSM US are exceeding the requirements for a local chapter in this regard but I think that the OSM US website would be the correct place to mention that.
