This is a very good question. Yes, this money would technically be considered a profit. However, nonprofit organizations that have been grated 501(c)(3) status with the IRS must have a plan for the money or else they have to distributed it to another nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization.

This is not generally an issue for most of these qualifying organzations are funded by community members and grants from larger organizations. The grants are given after a purposal and budget have been approved. These budgets are pretty tight. Most of these types of organizations are running with just enough funds to get by.

The tax form that is filed by nonprofits would be Form 990.

Good luck!

How has the way in which nonprofit organizations acquire funding changed over recent years?

Over the past decade, there has been a great change in how the economy works and the funds for nonprofit sectors have decreased considerably. These organizations have had to come up with creative and new ideas on how to fund their programs. Funds are cut for non-profit organizations and are being paid late, which leaves the non-profit stuck with the bill until money comes through. Non-profits are learning to only make short-term commitments and cut out long-term investments, and these companies are learning to stay small instead of growing too large, so that funding is still available. Providing information to funders is also key, because any left out expenses will cost the non-profit in the future. These companies are required to make better models for the outlay of the business, while including the cost of hiring employees, and paying out expenses to missions.
