A nonprofit exists to serve - but it is still a business. A nonprofit is a business whose "profit" is in service, people, or programs, not shareholders or dividends. If run in a business-like fashion, there are more resources to fulfill the mission of the nonprofit. If poorly run, services dwindle, people suffer, and ultimately, the cause fails. Utilizing standard business practice in the NGO world realizes on the combination of heart and head.
