a) What is a non-profit organization?
A non-profit organization is an organization that has no owner. Groups of people come together to achieve a goal, instead of making profit.
b) When considering non-profit organizations, what is a mission
statement?
A vision? Goals? Explain these.
A mission statement is a short statement about the reason for the organization, (the goal of it), and the plans for it also. It's also for what the organization aims for.
A vision statement sets a goal for the non-profit organization and it helps it go on to reach it and complete it's mission.
The goal is what the organization wants to accomplish and basically what the purpose of it is.
