Next Gen NPO's

ABOUT US

Our Philosophy

Nonprofit organizations are mission based, social service, charities defined by the IRS as 501 © 3 organizations. They all must fulfill their missions, provide measurable impact, and be financially sustainable.  However, nonprofits are also businesses.  They must operate under the same principles and characteristics of for-profit business.  

The entire nonprofit landscape is changing rapidly before our eyes. The increase of competition from similar charities, attracting and retaining donors and staff, earned vs. contributed revenue streams, sustainability and relevance, are all examples of a multitude of factors that make running a nonprofit organization more difficult than it’s ever been before.
