What is a Non - Profit Organization?

​

A nonprofit organization is an entity that operates for a cause or purpose other than making a profit for its owners or shareholders. Examples include charities, foundations, and organizations focused on social welfare, education, or scientific research

​

Purpose

​

The core purpose of a nonprofit organization is to serve a public interest or a specific social cause rather than to generate profit for its members or owners. Nonprofits are typically dedicated to charitable, educational, scientific, religious, or literary purposes. They operate with a mission to address unmet needs, promote positive change, and contribute to the well-being of society. 

​

Qualifying Factors

​

A business qualifies as a nonprofit when its primary purpose is to serve a social cause or public benefit rather than to generate profit for its owners. It must operate for purposes like charitable, educational, or scientific reasons, and its earnings are reinvested into the organization's mission rather than distributed to shareholders or individuals.
