They rely on donations - whether that's physical (as in equipment or supplies) - or time (voluntary staff). For example - the British Heart Foundation is a charitable organisation that raises funds to find cures or new treatments for Heart disease. Their retail outlets are staffed by unpaid volunteers, and they also have salaried management. People donate clothing, electrical and furniture to them - which is then sold to raise funds. The running costs of each shop are met by a central 'fund' and everything left over is then donated to research.
