Chiefly a US term. A nonprofit is a mission-led organization that does not distribute profits to owners.
In the UK, the nearer everyday terms are charity and voluntary organisation. They are not perfect synonyms. “Charity” is a legal and regulatory status, not just a warm word for doing good. A US page that says “nonprofit” may be talking about an entity that would need a different legal label in the UK.
