3. Definition: An organization in which no
owner, stockholder or trustee shares in profits
and losses, and which exists not to earn
revenue but to promote a mission that
enhances the public welfare. These
organizations are often eligible for tax-
exempt status and some, but not all, can
receive tax deductible contributions.
4. Nonprofit refers to groups whose purposes
are to benefit the public. A nonprofit is
exempt from income tax under
Sections 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(4) of the federal
Internal Revenue Code. There are actually 20
categores of tax-exampt organizations under
Section 501 of the tax code. All of these are
considered "nonprofit" organizations.
5. Charities are classified as 501(c)(3) tax-exempt
organizations. These include organizations
whose purposes are:
charitable
religious
educational
scientific
literary
testing for public safety
fostering national or international amateur
athletic competition
preventing cruelty to children or animals.
Furthermore, "charitable purposes" are defined as
activities beneficial to the public interest and
serving an open class of people, not a limited
number of identified people.
7. The voluntary sector or community
sector (also non-profit sector or "not-for-
profit" sector) is the sphere of social activity
undertaken by organizations that are not for
profit[1] and non-governmental. This sector is
also called the third sector, in reference to
the public sectorand the private sector. Civic
sector is another term for the sector,
emphasizing the sector's relationship to civil
society.
8. The Cabinet Office defined the ‘Third Sector’
as “the place between State and (the) private
sector”.[1]
In India this sector is commonly called the
"joint sector", and includes the industries run
in partnership by the state and Private Sector.
In a wider sense the initial investment is
made by the state and later the handling is
done by the private sector.
9. A Social Enterprise has been defined by
the UK government as:
‘a business or service with primarily
social objectives whose surpluses are
principally reinvested for that purpose
in the community, rather than being
driven by the need to maximise profit
for shareholders and owners.’

11. Nonprofit organizations serve the public,
providing a wide range of services to improve the
quality of life of individuals or communities. They
are often heavily staffed with volunteers or
temporary workers with diverse skill sets, who
are strongly motivated by altruism,The transient
nature of personnel and short-term inconsistent
funding, contribute to nonprofits’ general lack of
ability to provide for long term technology plans
