Management has the right to manage. However do you have an employment contract? What about the salary of the other employees? Do you compare with them? Perhaps you can take more responsibility and at your review time, document how much more work you're doing and why you deserve a raise - based on the quality of your work.
you can also compare your work with other not for profits and see if your salary is comparable to others If others do better you have an argument.
Remember... non profit doesn't mean that the organizations are not allowed to *earn* profits, it means that the profits go back into the organization and not to a stock holder. Non profit is a tax and legal term only.

What often happens in many organizations is that you will be given more and more projects until you fail at which point you get fired.
The thing to do here is successfully manage these projects and be sure to know the metrics on how they benefit the organization. Once you have completed this, approach your employer about an increase in salary based upon your success.

why don't you set up a time to talk with your employer in a professional manner, and write down a list of your job duties and compare with your job description. ask what they think your job currently entails. ask to have your job description updated so there are no suprises. then mention your new added duties. and then ask if when new duties are added will you be compensated in some manner not just by money but benefits, or special job considerations. tell them you are spending more time with your new duties. do not become frustrated. meet them at a bargaining table. do not do full frontal attack at first. be persistent. assertive not aggressive. mention what talents you have brought to the job and how you have been flexible in responding to the new demands but wonder if the new demands are a permanent part of your job description. be professional...

Yes, they can do this. Most job descriptions have a line that reads something like "and any other duties that need to be done that your boss gives you". If it's not stated, it's certainly implied.
Your rights are that you can look for another job, and quit your current one.

Check your contract. There may be a provision for adding programs and or responsibilities as needed to your job. Non-profits tend to be a bit more likely to add to the job without adding to the salary, but most corporations do this, especially at the management level and to salaried, as opposed to hourly wage, employees.

Yes, the employer can just do this. Welcome to life. What you should do is approach your supervisor and suggest that, due to the added responsibility, you would like them to consider giving you a pay raise. Maybe you can negotiate so that, depending on how well you do with the new responsibility, they can give you a certain amount.
