Another ambitious undertaking.
Taking the pulse of nonprofits around the country is an ambitious goal. And at CFNPS, we’re up to it. Every year we poll more than 100,000 nonprofit leaders and compile the results right here. In this annual study, we ask questions about everything from fundraising and marketing, to board make-up and morale. What are nonprofit leaders planning for? How are they utilizing the Internet? Where do they see opportunities to expand? Our study uncovers those answers and more.

More data every year.
As we complete these studies year after year, we are able to track developments in the sector and see how it’s progressing. These studies will show you trends as they happen and give you a chance to watch changes occur and see perspective shift over many years.
