How does a non-for-profit organization work?

Question

If they generate a surpluss income, where does it go? How is it managed?

Answer 1

Any surplus goes back into the program to buy supplies, resources, etc. that will expand their service; their main motive isn't to earn a profit like for-profit companies. They have managers and directors and treasurers who direct the funds into each branch of the company

Answer 2

It is constantly "moved around"...
