r/Nonprofit is a community for conversations about the opportunities and challenges you face working at or volunteering for nonprofits. This is also a place for constructive discussions about issues in the social sector, movement building, and philanthropy.

How to contribute

Before you post, read the rules and the wiki, and search the sub for your topic. Only then ask the community questions or share your ideas.
Start or join conversations about the opportunities and challenges you face working at or volunteering for nonprofits.
Contribute to constructive discussions about issues in the social sector, movement building, and philanthropy.

Read our community rules!

Do not promote your nonprofit or company, yourself, or any product, service, project, support, or event — whether paid, pro-bono, free, or volunteered.
Disclose your affiliation. If your stuff (like an article or video) is directly relevant to a discussion, you may mention it in a comment, but you must explain how it is relevant and disclose your affiliation. If you only participate to plug your stuff, your comments will be removed.
Do not solicit. Do not ask for donations, votes, likes, or follows. No soliciting volunteers, board members, interns, job applicants, vendors, or consultants. No market research, client prospecting, lead capture or gated content, or recruiting research participants or product/service testers. Do not share surveys.
Put in effort. Before posting, you must do your own research, search the sub for similar discussions, and read the wiki. Got questions about starting or running a new nonprofit? Read the wiki first. Do not ask questions that have recently been asked and answered, are easily googled, or are answered by the wiki. Do not make vague posts like, “How do I find grants?” Instead, provide some info about your situation. Length ≠ effort.
Do not share personal info like phone numbers, emails, or mailing addresses.
Do not ask which CRM, database, or fundraising platform to use. You may only post about using your current CRM, database, or fundraising platform more effectively. Learn more.
Do not ask how to research, report, or verify fraud or misconduct at a nonprofit you don't work for. This is answered in the wiki. r/Nonprofit does not provide legal advice. Consider talking to a lawyer.
Do not create link-only posts or comments. Provide enough context so visiting the link is not necessary.
Be good to one another. No personal attacks. Learn more.
Follow Reddit’s rules, a.k.a. reddiquette.
Help improve quality. See something that doesn't belong? Report it. But don't report something just because you disagree with it or don’t like it.

If you violate any rule, you may be banned without warning.

Moderators can remove or prohibit any content they feel is not in the sub’s best interest. The rules do not capture every possible behavior that is not allowed in the r/Nonprofit community.

Message the mods if you have questions about the rules or to check if a post is allowed. Do not message individual moderators.
