Unfortunately, only a small percentage of funding made available through these programs is actually being contributed to qualifying organizations.

In order to combat these roadblocks and close the knowledge (and funding) gaps, nonprofits are beginning to take on a more direct approach to communicating the opportunities [...]

This post was originally published on Third Sector Today, which has since merged with TopNonprofits. Controversial, I know.

Nonprofit organizations are competing for inbox and newsfeed space with the majority of all other [...]
