Lisa Dietlin visits the SnapCast and schools Mickey on the Nonprofit Sector. We start with taking in the 30,000 foot view of the sector and break some things down from there. Among the many things we discuss:
- Do you know how the nonprofit/philanthropic sector evolved in the US?
- Did you know the nonprofit sector is the largest employer in the US?
- Did you know that every position that exists in the for-profit world exists in the nonprofit world?
- Did you know that nonprofit does not mean non-revenue?
- In 2023, more than $577 billion was donated to causes in the US with the majority of it coming from individuals. This means that almost $1.6 billion is given away every single day of the year?
- Did you know that 80% of nonprofits receive 50% of their annual budget during the last two months of the calendar year? Yet kids are hungry in April, rivers need to be cleaned up in May, books need to be put on library shelves in July…. In other words, nonprofits work 24/7/365.
