Many nonprofit leaders report that political uncertainty and funding cuts are negatively impacting their organizations. The Center for Effective Philanthropy shared in a Snapshot Research report that more communication from funders is desired about the implications of the political context, and nonprofits need more unrestricted support to weather federal funding freezes as many state and local budgets shift. More than 50 percent of respondents noted political divisions in the U.S. impact their work, and more than 70 percent note that election outcomes and changes in federal funding affect their current and future work.
