The Reporter - News: "Nonprofits to hear results of study




The Coalition of Solano County Non-Profits will meet at 9:30 a.m. Jan. 6 in Suisun City to hear the findings of a study titled 'Managing Through Challenges: A Profile of San Francisco Bay Area Non-Profits.
The meeting will be at the Joe Nelson Community Center where Denise L. Gammal and Hokyu-Hwang will present the Stanford study.
Leaders of Solano County's nonprofit organizations first met in April in a public forum to discuss the challenges they face in providing services to their clients.
Out of this forum grew the coalition, dedicated to educating the community about the trials and tribulations of meeting the needs of the community's children, adults, and elderly in hopes of establishing a broad base of community support for their programs across governmental entities, businesses, educational institutions and community-based organizations.
This groundbreaking study from Stanford on nonprofits declares that 'location does matter.' This study found that the other Bay Area counties' nonprofits are better-funded and spend more per capita compared to Solano County nonprofits. "
