一、什么是非营利组织?“非营利组织”的概念是从国外引进的,英文称作“non-profitorganization”,简称NPO。这个词产生在美国,但无人知道是谁最先提出来的。在美国,人们把公益性的组织称为非营利组织,因为这个词最容易区别于企业组织(营利性的组织),不管各类非营利机构之间有? First, what is a non-profit organization? The notion of “nonprofit organization” is imported from abroad. In English, it is called “non-profitorganization” or NPO for short. The word was born in the United States, but no one knows who first came up. In the United States, people refer to a non-profit organization as a non-profit organization because it is the easiest word to distinguish it from a business organization (for-profit organization), regardless of the type of non-profit organization.
