Nonprofits Report Poor Communication and Little Help From Foundations During the Economic Downturn

To help combat poor communications and build a stronger relationship with grantees, survey respondents offered this advice to foundations:

• Clearly communicate with grantees about their own responses to the economic climate.
• Be involved in helping grantees consider changes they are making in response to the economic climate.
• Work to build better relationships with grantees, particularly by taking the time to understand the goals and strategies of grantee organizations.
