non-profit organizations
Non-profit organizations are entities that operate for a social or public purpose rather than generating profit for owners or shareholders. They pursue activities focusing on charitable, educational, scientific, religious, or other socially beneficial purposes, typically relying on donations, grants, or membership fees to support their mission. The funds they receive are reinvested into their programs, services, or causes to make a positive impact on society rather than being distributed as profits.
