They offer an authentic reflection of the human condition, providing a mirror to society that reveals our shared struggles, joys, and complexities.

Many nonprofits - particularly those related to education, social services, and the arts - are increasingly reliant on government dollars from entities at all levels. These dollars help nonprofits scale, are often multi-year, and help provide legitimacy. It can often feel like an organization reliant on government dollars can under-invest in private fundraising. The opposite is true. Government money is often restricted an even a small amount of unrestricted funds goes a long way. In addition, as laid out in the piece below, government funding can be fickle and change based on those in government.
