What is Non-Profit & How does it work?

A non-profit organization exists to serve a cause rather than generate profit. Unlike businesses, it reinvests all funds into its mission, focusing on areas like education, social services, and healthcare. To operate legally, it must register and often obtain tax-exempt status (e.g., 501(c)(3)), allowing it to receive tax-deductible donations. A board of directors oversees its operations, ensuring compliance with regulations.

Non-profits rely on donations, grants, and fundraising to sustain their work. Instead of distributing profits, they use all revenue to support programs that benefit the community and create a lasting impact. Through their mission-driven approach, non-profits play a vital role in addressing social issues and driving positive change.
