Non-Profit
A non-profit corporation is an incorporated organization that is not intended to distribute profit to its members or owners, but instead uses them to pursue its goals. Non-profit does not literally mean that a non-profit corporation cannot make a profit. A non-profit can take in more many than it spends, as long as the non-profit is organized and operating from a non-profit purpose. Tax-free profits may be used for the benefit of the organization or for operating expenses (including officer, director and employee salaries. However, profits, in the form of dividends, cannot be distributed to its officers, directors or employees.
