The Non-Profit Sector consists of organizations that operate for purposes other than making a profit. These organizations focus on social, educational, charitable, or community goals. They rely on donations, grants, and volunteers to fund their activities and often provide services that benefit the public, such as food banks, hospitals, and educational programs.
Non-profits are typically governed by a board of directors and must adhere to specific regulations to maintain their tax-exempt status. They play a crucial role in addressing societal issues, promoting community development, and advocating for various causes, such as environmental protection and human rights.
