The State of Nonprofits
Blackbaud-the makers of the highly used nonprofit software-Raisers Edge, released their study on the State of Nonprofits in the United States. You can view the full report at the Blackbaud website.
To summarize, the outlook looks favorable for nonprofits around the country. Need for services is expected to rise. Staffing projections are on the rise. Revenue from charitable donations are expected to increase. The report notes that "Corporate donations, foundation grants, and special events were also believed to be the areas of greatest revenue improvement." Only 20% of respondents expect revenue to decrease, which is very positive considering the doom and gloom economic reports we see on a nearly daily basis.
What does this mean for grant proposal writers? Keep on cranking out those proposals! Of course the level of giving depends on many factors, such as the type of programs you offer, what new initiatives you will offer over the next year, and the region your organization serves. Regardless of those factors, a well designed fundraising plan that includes grant income can help your organization to increase its revenue, and the good it does in the community.
