Answer:

Option D

NGOs are not officially affiliated with any country's government

Step-by-step explanation:

NGOs are non governmental organisations, They are most of the time, founded by private parties who are normal citizens of the country usually with the aim of solving a societal problem or contributing to the development of the society.

In terms of ownership structure, NGOs are as a matter of fact, owned by private individuals, and as their name implies, are not officially affiliated with the government of any country. They are usually charity organisations, which receive funds from free will donations, rather than sale of goods and services
