NFF and Harvard University's Hauser Center Issue Survey Findings and Proceedings from Major 2007 Conference: Key Funders Urge that Nonprofit Grant Process Be Simplified

Nine out of 10 of a group of leading institutions that fund nonprofits want to streamline the grant application and reporting processes, according to the findings of a recent survey conducted by Harvard University's Hauser Center for Nonprofit Organizations and the Nonprofit Finance Fund (NFF).

Survey results were published in conference proceedings that were released today. The proceedings also offer draft principles for all social sector funders, including foundations, individual donors and government agencies. They suggest key steps that can improve the impact of funds flowing into the nonprofit sector.
