Live Discussion
Nonprofits are facing increased demand for services, according to the Nonprofit Finance Fund's 2011 Nonprofit State of the Sector survey. That follows three consecutive years of increases in request for aid.
Meeting that demand has grown tougher as governments make cuts and private donations continue to be sluggish.
Read the transcript below of a live discussion on the ways nonprofits can overcome these challenges and serve more of the people who need their help.
The guests:
Anne Dyjak, chief credit officer and vice president of the Nonprofit Finance Fund, was previously regional chief operations officer and vice president at Wachovia Bank. She has also served as the director of finance and administration at an environmental organization.
