# Legal Structure

The stewardship of shared learning that places life at the centre of organisations lies at the heart of OD for Life’s purpose and practice.

To support this work through a neutral, non-commercial structure, OD for Life was formally registered as a foundation in 2022.

The legal and financial responsibilities are stewarded by the board. Read more about the board in the section on [Circles](/gardeners-guidebook/how-we-tend-to-odfl/circles.md).
