Nonprofit leaders understand that much of the day-to-day management of an organization is heavily dependent upon successful fundraising. In order to generate positive, lasting change, nonprofits need the resources to do so.
Yet more time spent on fundraising means less time dedicated to the overall mission of the organization.
That’s why many decide to establish nonprofit agency funds to help stabilize revenue generation.
In recent years, the way nonprofits fundraise and generate revenue has evolved. Innovative business models such as social enterprise and impact loan funds are becoming more viable in the industry.
In addition, recent changes to the U.S. tax law are causing more and more leaders to rethink their charitable strategies. According to the Council on Foundations, donations to the nonprofit sector could decline by as much as $24 billion per year as a result of the new tax law.
If those projections become reality, then the 10,844 nonprofit organizations in San Diego will look toward newer solutions that help maintain and grow their impact.
Stability in the nonprofit sector is critical today, more than ever.

These funds, particularly endowment funds, help smooth out the ups and downs of long-term fundraising by creating a sustainable pool of money that an organization can rely on. Agency funds also show the community and potential donors that an organization is committed to its mission and here to stay.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

On August 9, 2022, we awarded $838,704 in Opening the Outdoors grants to 24 nonprofit organizations that offer equitable access to outdoor spaces in San Diego County.
“San Diego Foundation is proud to once again support its partners committed to increasing community-driven efforts to enhance accessible outdoor space, encourage youth to learn more through hands-on education and create the next generation of environmental stewards in the San Diego region,” said Christiana DeBenedict, SDF Director of Environment Initiatives.
This year’s grantees will help address these inequities and enhance access to the outdoors throughout San Diego County.
