Hi Jeff,

No, "for-profit" in this case does not mean "not a non-profit
organisation". See this FAQ entry:
https://developers.google.com/maps/faq#usagelimits

"Non-profits and applications deemed in the public interest (as determined
by Google at its discretion) are not subject to these usage limits. For
example, a disaster relief map is not subject to the usage limits even if
it has been developed and/or is hosted by a commercial entity."

Regards
Chris
