Example of tools and not goals:

 * Manage E-Mail
   * Software: Evolution
   * Software: Mutt(console)
 * Browse the Web
   * Software: Mozilla-Firebird
 * Manage Web-site
 * Develope great Software Projects
 * edit and check xml files(working with bigger ones)
 * check hardware for errors
 * creating macromedia flash
 * emulate/run windows under linux

Even if they are not goals, many, many thanks to contributors!
Whoever added these, you must have had some goal in your mind.
Please ask yourself:
 * Why would a non-profit association really want to create Macromedia Flash?
 * Why would a non-profit association really want to emulate Windows under Linux?
 * Why would a non-profit association really want to check hardware for errors?
 * Why would a non-profit association really want to edit and check XML files, especially bigger ones?

The answers to these questions are good candidates to be goals.
