Explanation

Not-for-profit organizations operate without the primary goal of profit, focusing instead on social or environmental missions. From the list: • Oxfam, Save the Children, The Red Cross, and The United Nations are not-for-profit entities dedicated to humanitarian, developmental, or peacekeeping goals, often with sustainable procurement policies aligned with CSR. • Apple and Pepsi are for-profit corporations focused on commercial success. The CIPS L3M6 module highlights not-for-profits as key players in sustainable procurement due to their mission-driven nature.
