What is a 'charity'?

A charity is a non-profit organisation set up to benefit the public, often focusing on areas like education, health, or poverty. The Richmond Project, co-founded by Akshata Murty, is a charity encouraging families to engage with numbers during days out. Charities rely on donations and volunteers to achieve their aims, contributing significantly to society.
