We wouldn't absolutely need a non-profit. If we're going to pay someone to do this work (and I'd pony up too, if needed), we would want to have a contract that specified how much it would cost, the time frame, and what would be delivered. Having a non-profit makes this easier because the contract can be with the non-profit entity; otherwise, it's a personal contract with whomever is willing to sit on the money and poke the contractor.
