A non-profit organization (abbreviated "NPO", also "not-for-profit") is a legally constituted organization whose objective is to support or engage in activities of public or private interest without any commercial or monetary profit.
NPOs are active in the environment, humanitarian aid, animal protection, education, social issues, charities, health care, politics, religion, research, the arts, sports or other endeavors.
An NPO is depicted on the Internet with a .org(dot org) domain.
More and more people are beginning to earn a living and simultaneously give back to the world thru their communities by NPOs.

I've been told that these services are of the devil.
Nonsense! You can use a fork for eating or you can use a fork to kill.
Like anything, these services can be used for good or bad, righteousness or unrighteousness.

Business/Social Bullies
Basically, bullies are cowards. A bully recognizes you can do something that they can not and often times they can see your potential before you can. And instead of exerting effort to establish skill or talent within themselves they work to shut you down. A bully will attempt to shut you down by any means necessary.
With business/social… a bully tries to gain control by making others feel angry or afraid. It is characterized by verbal abuse such as name-calling, sarcasm, incessant teasing, threatening, mocking, putting down, belittling, ignoring, and lying. Also known as adult and workplace bullying, emotional bullying also includes such abuse as micromanagement, exclusion from a group, tormenting, ganging up on others, or humiliation. Moreover, this type of bullying also extends to racially or sexually abusive comments and behavior.
In an article on bullying which appeared in the July 20, 1998 edition of the Toronto Star, experts pointed out that over 50% of the adult population have experienced this form of violence at work, at home, and in society.
Moreover, according to Peg Burr, MA, MFT, bullies exist along the same continuum as personality disordered persons who have anti-social tendencies and sociopaths.
When it comes to bullying, often the first advice given is to just ignore the bully. However, is this realistically possible when you have constant working relationship?
So, how do you stand up to and beat a bully?
Be confident. Be assertive. And hold your ground.
An emotionally neutral reaction to the abusive acting out will allow you to confine the relating you do with the bully to his or her positive areas (where he or she will feel less vulnerable and threatened) In other words, boost their ego. Tell them they are brilliant…etc. This is a good way to manipulate recurring difficult situations with a volatile boss, friend or coworker so that their acting out does not escalate. By doing this, you are performing a manipulation of the bully's narcissistic tendencies to get all of what you need and want
(i.e., a paycheck or even better: a business)

DON'T GET PIMPED
Pimps DO no-thing. They TALK ONLY.
That is the only skill they have.
Actual work they avoid.
These types are carried by the workers.
They piggy back ofF the work of others; Off the ideas of others, Off the name of others, Off the association of others, off the $$ of others--They have no skills.
Carrying people will tire you out.
And make you mad.
If you work and make things happen and your partner(business or personal) does not work and can not make anything happen...you will be frustrated and exhausted.

1 hardworking person + 1 hardworking person= a huge success
1 hardworking person + 1 non-working person = failure all around

AMPLIFY
NEVER ALIGN, PARTNER, COLLABORATE OR GO INTO BUSINESS WITH ANYONE WHO CAN NOT BE SUCCESSFUL ON THEIR OWN.
EVEN JESUS PARTNERED WITH PEOPLE WHO WERE ABLE TO 'DO' AND 'BE' ON THEIR OWN.
HIS DISCIPLES LEFT THEIR WORK
(WHAT THEY WERE ALREADY DOING) JESUS NEEDED PEOPLE OF VALUE AROUND HIM TO PARTNER IN MINISTRY WITH HIM.
THEY AMPLIFIED HIS MINISTRY,
THEY CARRIED IT.
YOUR PARTNERS, COLLABORATORS MUST AMPLIFY YOUR GIFT.
IF THEY CAN NOT AMPLIFY IT(BE A PLATFORM FOR IT),
THEY WILL TAKE IT (OR TRY TO)
