Social Welfare Organizations

Social Welfare Organizations (SWOs) are nonprofits dedicated to improving community well-being through various charitable activities, such as providing support services, education, or advocacy. They seek to enhance the quality of life for specific populations or communities without engaging primarily in commercial or profit-making activities. SWOs are recognized by tax authorities for certain benefits, like tax-exempt status, provided they operate in line with their charitable purpose. Their work often involves fundraising, volunteer coordination, and program delivery aimed at addressing social issues and promoting public good.
