What are the critical needs currently capturing the attention of the local nonprofit sector?

Non-Profit organizations: oraganization that use funding to help purse goals but does not pay its owners and workers.

Examples of non-profits include

American Cancer Society

PETA

The American Red Cross

United Nations.

I personally have been a member of tons of non profit sectors, some of them still active and some of them that have been shut down.

There are a couple of needs that are essential for non profit organizations, such as:

1. Membership

2. Participation

3. $$$Funding$$S

Membership:

- there is power in numbers

all non profits have a cause, if things come up such as elections, or polls if you don't have the numbers you cant make a difference

*example- The Green Party

*Personal Experience- Students working against tobacco (working to get ordinance passed

Participation:

-Who's gonna do the work

someone has to get the word out 

*example-

*Personal Experience- Presiding over anything

Funding:

-Who's paying for all of this

money makes the world go round

*example- flyers, attention grabbers.

*Personal Experience- Students working against tobacco  loss of funding (where are they now)

Why do I care? Non- Profits:

Are responsible for most community service done in local communities.

Are decreasing due to a lack of these things.

I think that you are off to a great start! Since you explained that you have been apart of many non-profit sectors, you should just elaborate on your personal experience. I honestly wish I could give you better feedback, but I am still sketchy on the subject of non-profit organizations. Maybe you should first introduce what non-profit sectors are to your reader. Also give examples of big name non-profits. Your points are good to explain. - Jasmyne B.
