Nonprofit organizations do a lot of good work nationwide and throughout the world—but they can't do it alone. Many nonprofits depend on volunteers, donations and other resources to keep their operation running. Whether their goals are small or of global scale, there are still many things to accomplish, usually with a limited budget. That's why below I'll list a few key areas and resources for nonprofits—either for someone who would like to start one, or just as a guide for nonprofits who wants to improve their operation. The following list is in no way conclusive but was compiled to act as a starting point.
Philanthropy:
foundationcenter.org
The Foundation Center was established over fifty years ago and in that time they've become the leading source of information concerning philanthropy worldwide. The Center connects nonprofits with the resources they require to flourish. They also boast one of the most comprehensive databases on US and global grants. Also check out their resource pages for a large collection of links that point to other essential resources for nonprofits, like fundraising, volunteerism and nonprofit News.
Advertising:
gayfriendlysource.com
Publicity is important for nonprofits. Whether they're raising awareness for their cause or seeking donations—generating buzz is very important. Nonprofits can help get the word out without breaking the bank by finding venues that allow them to advertise for free. One such venue is The Gay-Friendly Source. The Gay-Friendly Source is a website that was built to foster community and dialogue between the LGBT community and the world at large. They also feature news, editorials, and an extensive directory of gay-friendly businesses, organizations and professionals. They offer free advertising to gay-friendly nonprofits on their site. Taking advantage of opportunities like this can help nonprofits cut costs without sacrificing visibility.
Website Design:
nonprofitsoapbox.com
While this may not seem like an obvious category, in the age we live in most businesses and organizations are only as good as their website. Websites are essential for nonprofits to increase their reach, clearly state their goals and provide actionable resources to their users. That's why I singled out Nonprofit Soapbox. They work exclusively with nonprofits to provide them with effective, state-of-the-art websites and online applications. Working with a proven designer of nonprofit websites can help ensure quality and the permeation of your message.
Nonprofit organizations have the ability to change the world but they need support and a flexible network to tap into when needed. Hopefully this article can serve as a starting point.
