What are NPOs?
A nonprofit organization, also known as a non-business entity or nonprofit institution, and often referred to simply as a nonprofit, is a legal entity organized and operated for a collective,
public or social benefit, as opposed to an entity that operates as a business aiming to generate a profit for its owners.
