2009 was a bad year for all businesses but specially for non profit organizations. When the economy is not doing well first thing the businesses do is cut their sponsorships, then marketing, and then the lay offs follow.

Contributions are way down this year. At least the ones I’ve spoken to. Some will not survive this economic turmoil. How will this effect the community? I am afraid it will effect the community negatively. When they are short of funds, they have to cut on the services that they provide, to animals, people, children, woman etc. What will happen to the recipients?

I think we should all get together to help the local charities. I believe they are doing so much for the community that the government can’t. Here are some good tips for them to afloat during these bad times. http://www.ncrp.org/blog/2008/12/suffering-nonprofit-sector.html
