Re: h1 transfer with non profit

It does not "reset" your previous H-1. You can simple work for the non-profit without having to be subject to the quota. Should you go back to working for a "for profit" company you will only have the 3 years remaining UNLESS you have left the country for over a year and then reenter on a fresh H-1.
