When you think of the word non-profit, you think it means that your business doesn't make any profit from the services it renders. However, many non-profit labeled businesses, actually make a profit. For example, hospitals and nursing homes, religious and social service facilities, etc. assist and do good to the public at large or the associates of the nonprofit unit itself.
