Not-for-profit Organisations Flashcards

All 6 cards in this deck

What is a not-for-profit organisation?: A business that aims to provide a public service or help people rather than make profit for owners, reinvesting any surplus.
What is a charity?: A not-for-profit organisation that raises money for good causes or helps people, animals and the environment.
What is a social enterprise?: A not-for-profit organisation that sells products or services like a traditional business but uses its profits to benefit society.
How are charities mainly funded?: Through donations, plus grants and tax relief they are eligible for.
What is a grant as a source of funding for a not-for-profit organisation?: Money given, usually by the government or lottery fund, that does not have to be repaid.
True or false? A not-for-profit organisation does not need to cover its costs.: False. It must generate enough income to cover its costs; it simply reinvests any surplus rather than paying owners.
