Finance allah shmoop what is an ngo Oh come on

You remember the song Sing it with me You know

there was a farmer had a dog and bingo was

his name I'll be all right Well you get the

idea then an ngo is way more meaningful in the

world though Although not to a six year old kid

Thank you very much Ngo stands for non governmental organization

which is an intentionally nonprofit organization like greenpeace the red

cross united way unicef the x files books for dogs

all that stuff Well ngos receive all of the favorable

tax and operational treatment of a normative nonprofit but because

they're overseeing and protected by uncle sam well there's less

pressure on them to raise a ton of money fast

so they tend to be able to focus on more

long term efforts like if there's an ngo that's working

on delivering warm clothes to every village in zaire Well

they're not going toe bold if they go three weeks

without holding a fundraising chili cook off there's Some senator

or congressman or other politico who you know can shake

a tree raise money and they're off to the races

And it's Almost a shame about that cook off thing

because well chili cook offs in zaire are off the 00:01:17.559 --> [endTime] hook No
