A NGO is merely a non-governmental organization. It simply means that it is not part of the government. A non-profit is a kind of organization that is designed not to make a profit, and has an elected board to govern it. An NGO then could be a non-profit, and vice-versa. An association is merely a collection of like-minded individuals, though sometimes there may be fees or other eligiblity criteria for membership.

NGO is Non Governomental Organisation.
Associations are non governmental in most countries, but are mainly offering services for their members only
Non profitable organisations are organisations established not for profit.. Charities can b a clear example of that
