This observation raises questions about how fundraising is carried out. Based on a survey of US charities, the paper observes that nonprofit organisations use a range of internal capacities and external relationships to conduct their fundraising. The use of staff members dedicated to fundraising is common, but much fundraising is still carried out by executive directors, volunteers and board members. Also, a substantial number of organisations engage external entities, including federated campaigns, support organisations and professional fundraising firms to generate contributions.Item How Muslim Americans meet their charitable obligations: 3 findings from new research(The Conversation US, Inc., 2022-04-22) Siddiqui, Shariq; Hughes, Micah A.; Wasif, Rafeel; Lilly Family School of PhilanthropyItem Less than 2% of all US giving supports women’s and girls’ charities(The Conversation US, Inc., 2021-10-29) Skidmore, Tessa; Ackerman, Jacqueline; Bergdoll, Jon; Lilly Family School of PhilanthropyItem LEVERAGING THE POWER OF FOUNDATIONS: An Analysis of Program-Related Investing(3/17/2013) IU Lilly Family School of PhilanthropyThis study provides a comprehensive quantitative analysis of the Foundation Center’s PRI database for the years 2000 to 2010. Analysis of this single and uniform dataset helps to shed light on the trends and landscape of foundations’ PRI activities. Additionally, the study explores the driving forces and challenges of PRIs through in-depth case studies of seven U.S.-based private foundations that use PRIs. This research aims to fill the gaps in knowledge about PRIs and to advance and disseminate new information about PRIs so that foundations might better leverage their impact for the greater good.Item Making Nonprofits More Effective: Performance Management and Performance Appraisals(Routledge, 2017) Walk, Marlene; Kennedy, TroyPerformance management and performance appraisals have long been regarded as key for effective strategic human resource management (SHRM) in the for-profit sector. When well- designed, performance management in general and performance appraisals in particular positively affect employees, managers, and organizations. Given the specific setup of nonprofit organizations, tools for performance management from the for-profit sector might not be easily applicable to nonprofit organizations. Nonprofit scholars have begun to study performance management, but to date the field lacks a comprehensive overview of this research. It is the aim of this chapter to summarize the research on performance management and performance appraisals in the nonprofit context and, based on this summary, to propose a comprehensive model of performance management and performance appraisals in nonprofit organizations.
