Sector Surveys: How are we doing in 2010?: "How are charities doing this year, compared to 2009? What is expected for the future?

The findings in the Sector Monitor show a sense of stagnation overall. And although the numbers aren't completely dismal, the approach going forward seems to be one of increasing caution.

Among the Monitor highlights are indications that, compared to previous survey findings, more charities are experiencing challenges due to economic conditions, more charities are experiencing high stress and the human resources picture is challenging.

It shows that more than half of charities have had an increased demand for their products and services and/or difficulty fulfilling their mission in 2010.

Organization leaders are being careful as they look ahead."
