This survey is part of the Community Foundation’s continuing effort to direct funding where it is most needed and will have the greatest impact.
“As the ways in which we invest in this community continue to evolve, we’re very much aware that the hundreds of nonprofit organizations in our two counties are changing to respond to their constituent needs,” said Olivia Paul, director of community engagement at the Community Foundation. “To inform the way we support our nonprofit partners, engagement such as this online survey will be enormously helpful as we build out future funding opportunities, webinars, and other supportive services that the nonprofit community can benefit from.”
The deadline to complete the survey is Monday, October 31, 2022, 5 p.m. Ten randomly selected survey respondents will receive a $150 award for their participation. The survey, at foundationhoc.org/nonprofitsurvey, asks organizations for their latest information about mission and vision, service area, organization contacts, priorities and other needs. Community Foundation staff will analyze survey results, using the data to guide plans for general and targeted funding in 2023 and beyond. A survey report will be shared with nonprofit participants and the community next year.
