The World Bank (not a nonprofit, but related in terms of funding and accountability in nonprofits)
The World Bank is an international financial institution that provides funding and expertise to help developing countries build infrastructure, improve education, reduce poverty, and promote sustainable growth. It differs from nonprofits because it offers loans and grants to governments rather than charitable aid directly to individuals. While focused on global development, it maintains accountability through strict governance, project evaluations, and transparency processes to ensure funds are effectively used. Like nonprofits, it aims to improve societal well-being, but it operates on a larger scale with financial mechanisms that support long-term economic progress.
