The world desperately needs an 'Ease of doing good' or 'Ease of doing non-profit organizations' ranking and index. ~ 2-years of global grant-making and grant management has taught me that non-profit grants - giving and taking is so difficult. Every continent and every country has different and varying degrees of restrictions and regulations. So many different forms and processes to follow. Because of these regulations, even banks and financial institutions have even more due diligence and processes to adhere to. If I were a non-profit or policymaker advocating for simpler regulations or someone advocating for more restrictions I should be able to find an index to compare the policies and restrictions in different countries to advocate accordingly. Obviously, there exists a lot of issues with the definition of Good and if businesses are not doing good etc. That discussion is polarising and important. However I'm more interested in the conversation from the lens of grantmaking / grant receiving and non-profit operations in general. I'm also curious if such indices already exist and where your country stands.

Work for a non-for-profit, or even an religious based health system. Use this tool and see how much funding the government gives them through grants. It's diminishing now, but during COVID, it was immense. Check their personnel chart. How much bandwidth do they have devoted to their CRE? Their research? Their grant writing? To their actual delivery of healthcare? The results may just astonish you. https://lnkd.in/g2s28Gx8

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

Rising Tide Foundation is a charitable, non-profit organization that promotes freedom to improve quality of life everywhere. At Rising Tide Foundation, the Grant Application believe the market economy, in concert with limited government and rule of law, holds the greatest promise of freedom and prosperity for all. Markets enhance individual flourishing by coordinating diverse interests through voluntary and peaceful exchange. The greatest advancements in human history result from such interactions between individuals who are free to act, exchange, and create value for themselves and others, not from the use of force or top-down planning of the state. Our philanthropic strategy is to support projects that articulate and promote these core beliefs, projects that eliminate the obstacles which impede creative individuals, projects that give a “hand-up,” rather than just a “hand-out”. Specifically, we seek to find projects that: Develop private sector solutions to societal problems. Offer solutions to the problems created by government and crony capitalist interventions. Projects that offer strategies for making such interventions unnecessary and unattractive going forward. Design and implement programs that enhance individuals’ capacities for self-determination, individual choice, and peaceful, voluntary cooperation in society. Discover methods to teach freedom in more effective ways or to new, untapped audiences. #UFV #COOP #Oportunidade https://lnkd.in/dmUhxJwt
