What Does NGO Stand For?
NGO stands for Non Governmental Organization
An NGO, or Non-Governmental Organization, is a not-for-profit organization that operates independently of government influence. NGOs are typically focused on addressing social, humanitarian, environmental, or developmental issues and work towards positive change through advocacy, education, and direct services. They often rely on donations, grants, and volunteer support to achieve their objectives and can operate at local, national, or international levels.
