[@woopsserg]

Non-profit means they pay no dividends and technically no one owns it. Thus control can be easily hijacked if people with nefarious intensions are let in onto the board, Project Veritas for example. Does not mean that money cannot be funneled out though. For example paying exorbitant salaries, making overpriced purchases or underpriced sales from/to management associated for profit business. Giving loans with no intention to be paid back. What non-profit does not mean is them doing stuff for free, rather it's about not paying taxes usual business do. They of course they may provide free stuff but it has nothing to do with non-profit status as such.
