How do non-profit owners make money?
Non-profit organisations do not have ‘owners’ but instead have ‘founders’. While a non-profit organisation is not able to earn a taxable profit, those who founded the organisation, or run the organisation, are able to earn a salary.
This means a non-profit organisation founder can ensure they earn a living while being able to professionally facilitate charitable giving. All non-profits and charities have administrative costs, in order to be able to pay their workforce, without this workforce, the good work they do would not be possible.
