Morphology
The meaning 'an organization that does not operate for profit' is directly and transparently derived from 'nonprofit' (not commercially motivated) modifying 'organization' (a collective with a purpose). This adjective + noun composition is a regular, cross-linguistic pattern and would be immediately comprehensible to a B1 learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Nonprofit organization comes from the simple idea of an organization that is nonprofit — a group that does not keep profits for owners but uses money to help people or a cause. So, the phrase means a group set up 'not to make a profit' but to do work for others.
