In Their Own Words
“Our nation's nonprofit organizations are displaying exceptional resilience in the face of enormous fiscal challenges. Nearly three-fourths of the organizations reported being able to maintain or actually increase the number of people they serve, and this was especially true of service to vulnerable populations.”

— Lester M. Salamon, director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Civil Society Studies, commenting on a new survey measuring the impact of the economic downturn on nonprofits (Johns Hopkins University Press Release 6/29/09)
