Volume Up In Charity Advocacy - National Committee For Responsive Philanthropy

Volume Up In Charity Advocacy - National Committee For Responsive Philanthropy: ".. According to the Internal Revenue Service, more than 1,000 nonprofit organizations are classified as working to change public opinion and public policy and more than 75 percent were formed after 1970. Those organizations strive to monitor government decisions proactively, educate the public and develop policy solutions based on research. A recent study by the National Committee for Responsible Philanthropy, using return-on-investment calculations, showed that advocacy efforts pay off - for every $1 spent on advocacy, organizing and community engagement, constituents received $89 in benefits."
