        They do but it’s not where they get the majority of it from. All non profits have a team whose job is to bring in government grant money. I worked at one for a year and that’s how it works.

            Large organizations like that get huge donations from rich people and corporations to lower their taxes. My small local non-profit I worked for helped vulnerable mothers and families. The grants they got from the government were usually larger than private donations in total.
