A 501(c)(3) organization refers to a tax-exempt nonprofit organization that is organized and operated for charitable, educational, religious, scientific, or literary purposes.
Out of the options provided:
- **a private school** can be a 501(c)(3) if it is organized as a nonprofit.
- **a private foundation** is also classified as a 501(c)(3) organization.
- **a company that donates its profits but has unrelated business income** typically does not qualify as a 501(c)(3).
- **a lobbying firm** cannot be a 501(c)(3) as it engages in political activities.
