Depending upon what type of corporation it is, and its chartered purposes, there are many ways to "make money" for non-profits.

Charities, churches, educational non-profits, and others, often solicit donations from members, alumni, or the general public. Others sell products or services or sponsor amusements to raise money. Finally, there are government agencies that have the power to grant money to qualifying non-profit organizations that are carrying out a function that would otherwise be done using tax money.

For example, a town fire department may have a budget from annual taxes, plus accept donations of time or equipment, plus solicit cash donations from the public or from private foundations, plus sell souvenirs, plus hold games for charity, and also solicit state or federal money through various grants.
