On August 3rd, 2020, Bob McCartney authored the article, Nonprofits in trouble: One-third of organizations may not survive pandemic, recession for The Washington Post.
This article is a sobering assessment of the health and sustainability of nonprofit organizations in the Washington, D.C. metro area. But more than that, it’s likely a canary in a coal mine for our entire sector on a national scale.
Bob’s conversations with nonprofit leaders, institutional funders and other officials in the sector clearly indicate that while many organizations have survived the COVID crisis successfully, thousands of organizations were not prepared for this.
In this episode we delve deeper into Bob’s article and talk about the underlying challenges faced by nonprofit organizations right now — and the risks the sector faces in the near future.
This is a conversation you don’t want to miss!
