The Nonprofit Sector

The nonprofit sector consists of organizations that operate for purposes other than making a profit. These organizations focus on social, educational, health, environmental, or cultural goals, and they reinvest any surplus funds back into their missions. Nonprofits can include charities, foundations, and global NGOs, and they often rely on donations, grants, and volunteers to achieve their objectives. They play a crucial role in addressing community needs, supporting vulnerable populations, fostering arts and culture, and advocating for various causes, contributing to the public good and enhancing societal well-being.
