Creating More Social Capital
The current strain on the social sector is real whether you are a small shop run by volunteers or a large multi-million dollar budget organization…or anything in between.
Nonprofit groups that want to survive the downturn should:
-
- Ask for something other than money.
- Keep in mind that while donor dollars may be limited, volunteers may offer an embarrassment of riches.
- Make sure they’re getting results.
- Keep a can-do culture.
- Figure out social networking and other new technologies.
- Collaborate with other organizations to expand a charity’s reach and stretch every dollar
- Invest in people.
