In an era where nonprofits confront perpetual financial challenges and face difficult decisions regarding resource allocation, a transformative study led by business professors Telesilla Kotsi, Arian Aflaki, and Alfonso J. Pedraza Martinez has unveiled a strategic approach to strengthen nonprofit resilience. The article, "Nonprofits can become more resilient by spending more on fundraising and admin – new research, " published on October 18, 2023, in The Conversation , discusses their findings, challenging the conventional wisdom of directing the majority of funds solely into program costs. Instead, it advocates for a nuanced and dynamic spending strategy.

Updated: Jan 9 As we enter the new year, many groups are taking a moment to look back at what they've done, see how it helped, and plan for what's next. Some are in a tough spot, dealing with money issues that are stopping their community projects from growing. In my work with different groups, I've seen people start community projects using their own money, turning them into important sources of help for the local community. Sadly, these groups are now facing problems stopping them from growing more because self-funding is getting tough. On the other hand, some got money for the first part of their projects but are now struggling to get more for the next step. This leads groups to think about getting help from a grant writer. Teaming up with a grant writer could be a good move if you've tried everything else and need new ideas. It makes sense why some groups might not want to do this. Getting a grant writer doesn't guarantee success; some think they should handle the grant writing process with volunteers to save money. These worries are fair and should be thought about carefully.
