  21. Summary • Rural regions are particularly fragile • Younger, less likely to “professionalize” • More reliant on contributions, limited access to philanthropic resources • Less resources to meet persistent need of the region

  22. Implications • Emphasis on “growing philanthropy” • Strengthening philanthropic institutions • Encouraging community philanthropy • Coordinated efforts for regional mentoring • Infrastructure development

  23. Next Steps for Nonprofit Analysis • First start • Misses organizations that don’t file independently – affiliates, faith based • Need more information about service delivery patterns –where, whom • Bi-annual survey of nonprofits in the region
