Sorry, I should have explained. When studying nonprofits (or the third sector, or whatever), any non-governmental organization that does not operate for profit is considered a nonprofit. This includes the roughly 30 types of organizations defined in section 501 of the IRS code (charities, unions, professional organizations, sports leagues, etc. -- yes, the NFL is a nonprofit organization), as well as free associations -- groups of people who organize themselves for some purpose, but do not necessarily legally incorporate (user groups, community watch groups, clubs, etc.).
When I say nonprofit, most people think of a 501(c)3, but our ragged band would be considered a nonprofit -- in an academic sense. Blame it on de Tocqueville. I apologize for causing confusion.
