Professional organizations for fundraising and nonprofit management help build philanthropic networks that support the social sector.  

Nonprofit organizations are governed by a Board, as established in their by-laws. Well-developed boards oversee nonprofits' day-to-day operations, help fundraise and often act as the public face of the nonprofit organization.

Volunteers are the lifeblood of many nonprofit organizations. The value of volunteer hours may be applied to grants that require matching funds from a prospective nonprofit partner.

Grantmakers, including private foundations, corporate foundations and grantmaking public charities, partner with nonprofits to strategically deliver programming and services in all areas of the social sector.
