Having transitioned from the private sector to the technology non-profit world, I've gained insights into the stark differences in financial environments. In the private sector, abundant budgets and safety nets for unexpected expenses are the norm. In contrast, the non-profit sector faces constant pressure for budget cuts and overhead reductions without adequate justification. This experience has been eye-opening, revealing the contrasting realities between these two worlds. The non-profit sector plays a significant role in impacting society in small and big ways. Despite this, the financial constraints are exceptionally tight and closely monitored. It's counterintuitive yet understandable that our society's values, deeply rooted in capitalism, might not always provide the ideal solution for societal well-being. Capitalism has led to the inequalities we witness today, creating problems that non-profits strive to address. It feels like a manufactured two-body problem, challenging but essential to navigate. Looking forward to hearing and learning from the thoughts of those who have been on this journey and are still going. What tools does your non-profit organization utilize to stay afloat in challenging financial times? Who is helping keep your well-being afloat? #nonprofit #privatevsnonprofit #financials

The document is posted by uploading it in machine-readable form in PDF format in the personal account of the respective NCO on the information resource.

Non-profits typically aren't *thrilled* when it's evaluation reporting time. When it's time to... - Wade through the various data they've collected (or panic because they haven't collected enough of the right stuff). - Make sense of the data against the outcomes they set (maybe many moons ago?) that the funder will be looking for. - Find time and resources to collect additional stories and feedback from beneficiaries when staff time is tight. - Combine the quantitative and qualitative data and condense it into an engaging summary report that meets the funders' needs - and hopefully persuades them to re-fund the work. Simple eh? Or not so much. If you know of a non-profit that needs help with evaluation reporting, I can help. ________________________________________________________ I'm Sarah.
