dailyrepublic.com: "Nonprofits rolling with the funding punches
By Sarah Arnquist
FAIRFIELD - Solano County nonprofits have weathered declining donations, government cuts and increasing service demands - but challenges loom on the horizon for all, according to a survey.
The United Way of the Bay Area's Nonprofit Pulse Survey revealed that 46 percent of Bay Area nonprofits in 2004 experienced an overall increase in total revenues and 22 percent remained steady. More than 70 percent of leaders who responded are optimistic for the future.
Local nonprofits found creative and collaborative ways to address funding cuts and increasing requests for services, said Anne Wilson, United Way of the Bay Area chief executive officer."
