Education & Research

United States of America

Academic enterprise devoted to teaching and research on nonprofit organizations and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), voluntary associations, voluntarism, and voluntary action, philanthropy, civil society, and related activities form the core of this industry. It is a loosely bounded, multidisciplinary, practice-oriented community. Nonprofits depend upon quality research to, among other things, increase their understanding, improve their operations and programs, and advance their public policy and public awareness initiatives. The US has a high reading literacy rate at 98% of the population over age 15 but ranks below average in science and mathematics understanding compared to other developed countries. In this sector we aim to work with organizations that help make a difference, supporting high impact education and research.
