Is Social Enterprise Right for Your Nonprofit?
One reason for a nonprofit to consider a social enterprise is to diversify their funding streams. Relying solely on donations and grants can be risky, as these sources of funding can be unpredictable and subject to external factors beyond the nonprofit's control.
Strong Boards Make Strong Nonprofits
Nonprofit organizations serve a critical role in society by addressing various societal issues and filling gaps where government and private organizations may not be able to act. The success of these organizations is heavily reliant on the strength of their leadership, which includes their Board of Directors. A strong Board of Directors is critical for nonprofit organizations as it can bring a wide range of expertise and experience that can help the organization to navigate various challenges and opportunities.
