State of Fund Raising
March 30, 2009 | Read Time: 1 minute
Sixty percent of nonprofit groups are expecting gifts to their organizations to either increase or remain about the same in 2009 when compared with 2008, according to a survey conducted by the Association of Fundraising Professionals.
That number suggests the recession, while painful, is not going to be a crippling blow to many organizations, said Paulette Maehara, president of the association, in an interview in New Orleans just before the association’s annual meeting opened there.
The fund-raisers group plans to release detailed findings from the survey at a press conference on Monday. The Chronicle will provide full details as soon as they are available.
