PACE Shares Findings of Nonprofit Effectiveness Survey

Tuesday, March 2, 2021

Program to Aid Citizen Enterprise (PACE) collaborated with data scientist, Pete York to analyze the effectiveness of nonprofits. PACE wanted to determine how they could better serve nonprofits doing the work to lift up at-risk populations. The study found that nonprofits that focus their work in primarily Black or other racial minority communities in the 10-county Pittsburgh region receive up to 50% less funding than those that serve primarily white or more diverse populations.

This information has implications for our entire nonprofit ecosystem including philanthropic, corporate and government funder; capacity builders; nonprofits; charitable groups; social entrepreneurs and community members. PACE intends to use the study results to guide the development of future programs and services.
