Nonprofit Community Survey
August 2020

How are Nonprofits Faring in Today's Turbulent Environment?

The past five months have been an unprecedented time in the nonprofit field, and our world as a whole. COVID-19 will leave lasting economic, political, social, and cultural impacts that we can't predict yet, and the Black Lives Matter movement is making space for conversations and shifts that are necessary and long overdue.  

Since opening our doors 16 years ago, Capacity Partners, Inc. has served our nonprofit clients and the community every step of the way, and we will continue to do so. We have pivoted our services to meet the needs of nonprofit organization during this tumultuous period, including offering free coaching, community conversations, and thought leadership as well as a host of services geared to this unprecedented time.
 
We want to know how you and your organization are adapting and what support you anticipate needing over the next year. We will analyze the results and prepare a report that we will publish and share. All data will be aggregated and responses are entirely anonymous. You are welcome to share your information at the end of the survey, but your name will not be publicly connected with your responses. 
 
This survey should take about 5 - 10 minutes of your time. Thank you for all that you do in the community by serving your organization's mission.
