North Jersey non-profits still see giving suffering from recession - NorthJersey.com

North Jersey non-profits still see giving suffering from recession - NorthJersey.com: Economists tell us the recession has officially been over for three years.

They should try telling that to charity officials.

Or to the people who make donations.

A recent survey of more than 2,500 non-profits found contributions are down across the country so far this year. That comes on the heels of the nation’s largest study of charitable giving, which found that donations in 2011 were virtually unchanged from the recession-depressed levels of the year before, after adjusting for inflation.
