Philanthropy UK : Civil Society research indicates changes in UK philanthropy: "Civil Society research indicates changes in UK philanthropy By Roxanne Clark, Added: 02 November 2007
According to new research by the Carnegie UK Trust into the future of civil society the widening gulf between rich and poor could lead to changes in UK philanthropy.
The report, The Shape of Civil Society to Come in the UK & Ireland, explores the potential threats and opportunities facing civil society up to 2025. It states that “one of the key roles of foundations is to complement the role of the state; acting where government is unwilling or unable”. However, it also says that there is growing confusion about “what areas of activity are complementing state activity and what areas are substituting for state activity”."

SM& Survey Reveals Boston's Non-Profits Must Improve Communication
PRESS RELEASE
SM& Survey Reveals Boston's Non-Profits Must Improve Communication: "SM& Survey Reveals Boston’s Non-Profits Must Improve Communication Results show organizations have to do better in communicating value
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Greater Boston’s non-profit sector is not successfully communicating its value, a recent Solomon McCown & Company (SM&) survey revealed. The survey, which was distributed via SurveyMonkey, polled a sampling of people who largely identified themselves as being part of non-profit, mission-focused or social entrepreneur organizations.
The aim of the survey was to tap into people’s thoughts on the landscape of Boston’s non-profit sector and its effectiveness of communicating with its audiences. The survey continued a dialogue that SM& started last fall when it hosted a gathering of 250 leaders of mission-focused organizations at an “SM& Presents” panel discussion entitled “STANDING OUT IN A CROWDED FIELD: Attracting Resources to Meet the Ambitions of Today’s Social Entrepreneurs.”"
