WELCOME

In preparaton for our 2012 Community Grants Cycle, the Bainbridge Community Foundation is pleased to introduce the 2012 Nonprofit Survey.

The focus groups will include a facilitated discussion about the issues, opportunities and trends facing each sector. Following the open portion of the focus groups, individuals will complete a confidential survey independently.

As space is limited, we ask that each agency send only one representative.

All individual responses to the survey are confidential. The feedback from the survey will be shared only in the aggregate.

FOCUS GROUP SIGNUP
Please join us for a sector-specific focus group and survey to help educate and inform BCF and our partner grant makers about the needs, strengths, and challenges of the BI nonprofit community and the individuals they serve.
