How Government Grants are Subverting the Missions of Nonprofit Organizations Introduction Nonprofit groups represent the best of American society.
Citizens donating time and money to help solve a particular problem is truly an American tradition.
Billions of dollars are donated each year to help nonprofit organizations fight everything from illiteracy, hunger, alcohol disease abuse even government waste. The strength of these organizations is the voluntary public support they receive. In recent years, however, the efforts and missions of many nonprofits have been compromised by the increased influx of tax dollars. There are several ways to determine the efficacy of nonprofit organizations. For example, the Council of Better Business Bureaus and similar organizations issue criteria and provide ratings on nonprofits.
