Non-Profit-Organizations (NPO’s) often rely on the support of donors and volunteers who pursue a mission that is derived from values and principles. (Worth, pg. 6) The economic model and the voluntary spirit model are contrastingly different. The economic model is referred to the growth philosophy, encompassing the market mechanism and organizational hierarchy. This model operates on the premise that there are three basic types of incentives to include materiel services (money, goods and services), solidary (social interaction) and purposive (rewards from participation). In addition the model mimics that of the private sector by highlighting marketing and competition by nonprofit organizations.

Non-Governmental Organizations, otherwise known as NGOs are non-profit and voluntary citizens’ group that is organized as an individual in your own local community, in national communities and in global communities. NGOs are task-oriented and are driven by people with a mutual interest for helping others. Non-Governmental Organizations perform a variation of service and philanthropic jobs such as bringing citizen concerns to governments, advocating and monitoring policies and encouraging political participation through provision of information. Some NGOs are organized around specific issues, such as human rights, environment or health (Definition of NGOs 2014). Some of the NGOs in certain countries are very helpful and NGOs in other countries hinder the improvement of the country. Although the Rwanda and Haiti have some apparent similarities, the difference between the NGOs in Rwanda and Haiti are pronounced.

This Learner finds it imperative to have a clear understanding in the differences between Nonprofit Organization (NPO) and Non-Governmental Organization (NGOs) before selecting a structure in addressing a social issue for this week discussion. Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) are a type of nonprofit organizations, they are typically having broader international causes, whereas, nonprofit organizations (NPO) support causes that are at the local level. Tschirhart and Bielefeld, (2012) “viewed non-governmental organization (NGO) with civil society organizations” (p.7). An example would be, The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) as a type of Non- Governmental Organization (NGO). These authors associated nonprofit Organization (NPO) with Charitable sectors who roles are providing direct relief to those in need and centers on philanthropic goals (Tschirhart & Bielefeld, 2012, p. 7). An example of Nonprofit Organization (NPO) would be Goodwill Industries.

Section 8 companies have the most reliable strongest organizational structure because of the privileges and exemptions which are granted to them by the Central Government. Section 8 companies are those companies which are formed for the sole purpose of promoting commerce, art, science, religion, charity or any other useful object and have been granted a licence by the central government recognizing them as such. This paper seeks to analyze the reasons for setting up a company under Sec.8 and examines the statutory advantages and disadvantages of such companies through judicial and statutory interpretations. The researcher has also analyzed the feasibility and efficiency of companies which have been established under this Section.

A non-governmental organization is a non-profit, citizen-based group that functions independently of government. NGOs, sometimes called civil societies, are organized on community, national and international levels to serve specific social or political purposes, and are cooperative, rather than commercial, in nature. (3) Today there are multiple NGOs registered around the world, heavily in developing countries. NOGs no matter where they exist they seem to have a nullifying role in the politics of the host country. In one way they criticize dictatorships and human rights violations. Then in another way they compete with the radical socio-political and religious groups. (8) Their aims range from providing relief services, conserving the environment, contributing to development projects or simply battling with governments over human rights issues. While some governments welcome NGOs, others find them a nuisance or even a threat to their interests. (1)

A Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) refers to an organization which is neither part of any government nor a profit making organization. NGOs are mainly involved in the promotion of societal interests. Hence they have

While Non-Government Organisations (NGO’s) have shown that they can be effective agents for alternative development within the post-development paradigm, it is not believed that they did so on their own. By addressing development and how alternative development differs from mainstream development this essay will show that development no matter at what stage is focused on the outcome rather than the journey. By clarifying what NGO’s are and how they are affected by governments, it will be argued that NGO’s are not free from the hierarchical structure that is modern day politics and that due to government structures and policies they are often restricted as they are not in a position politically to determine where donor and government funds are allocated. Finally by analysing two case studies of alternative development this essay will show that even though there are restraints, NGO’s are best situated to help the communities that are being “developed’ through participatory development in particular through alternative methods of education. By looking at the Bunyan in Pakistan this essay has shown that alternative education can open doors to those who would normally not have the access hence improving
