Nonprofits are facing a difficult moment.
Demand for services is rising, funding is becoming more uncertain, and nonprofit leaders are navigating increasing pressure to support their communities with fewer resources. Recent research from the Center for Effective Philanthropy shows that nearly two-thirds of nonprofits report increased demand for their services, while almost 70 percent have lost funding from at least one source.
So what does this moment mean for nonprofits — and for the communities that rely on them?
Join Social Venture Partners Seattle for the first session of our Powering Nonprofits: Insights and Action Series, a conversation about what nonprofit leaders are experiencing and how philanthropy and community partners can respond.
This virtual session features:
Seara Grundhoefer, Senior Analyst, Center for Effective Philanthropy
Jodi Nishioka, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Director, Ile Kimoyo
Together, they will share insights from CEP’s latest national research alongside perspectives from nonprofit leadership here in Washington State.
In this conversation, we’ll explore:
- What the latest research reveals about the pressures nonprofits are facing
- How funding cuts, burnout, and increased demand are shaping nonprofit work
- What donors, funders, and community partners can do differently to support nonprofit leaders and the communities they serve
At SVP Seattle, we believe strengthening nonprofits starts with listening to nonprofit leaders and responding to what they actually need.
Whether you are a donor, nonprofit leader, or community member, this session is designed to spark reflection, deepen understanding, and support more informed, equitable engagement in the social sector.
