Can I invest in a non profit?

What is the difference between a funder and an investor?

An investor gets a piece of your future growth and is willing to accept the risk of losing their money if things don't go the way you planned. On the other hand, a financier is like an equipment lessor, a lender or a bank borrowing you, is not an investment in your business.
