On August 17th, we commemorate National Nonprofit Day, a day dedicated to recognizing the invaluable contributions of nonprofit organizations in serving communities and making a positive impact. At Western Youth Services, we’re proud to celebrate 52 years of dedication to the well-being of youth and families in Orange County.
What is a Nonprofit Organization?
A nonprofit organization, also known as a charity organization, is a type of entity that operates for the greater good of society rather than to generate profit. Nonprofits typically focus on addressing social, environmental, or humanitarian issues and rely on donations and grants to fund their programs and initiatives. These organizations play a vital role in providing essential services and support to those in need.
