animals and their environments, OXFAM which helps people in disasters and emergencies, and so on. I try to play my part. We have 
'Flag Days' when we stand in the street and collect money from people. We have official badges so people can recognise us and we are 
licensed by the city authorities. People are generous. It usually takes me just four hours to collect £70. That's about $105."

Nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) are private organizations whose memberships and activities are international in scope. 
NGOs do not possess the legal status of national governments. However, the UN and other international forums recognize many 
NGOs as important political institutions. Examples of NGOs include the Roman Catholic Church, Greenpeace, the International 
Olympic Committee, and the International Committee of the Red Cross. Although multinational corporations (MNCs) share many 
characteristics of NGOs, they are not international organizations because they do not coordinate the actions of members for mutual 
gain.
