NGO is not the correct term.
The Italian social cooperatives are, normally, small companies. That is
much different form NGO [1], I think. In particular they are for-profit
businesses.
My earlier point was that if you put the operator's name in the "operator"
tag, this would, in Italy, normally include the term "cooperativa sociale"
as part of the name
