Nonprofit executives fear the day when the “worst case scenario” becomes a reality. The most recent such described development was the pandemic. You’d like to believe that with all of the sweat and toil by those in the sector that people would understand the role of charities in American life.

That doesn’t appear to be the case.

In a statistic that can only be portrayed as appalling, just 5.4% of participants in a research study by the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy reported they or someone in their family had received services from a nonprofit last year. You must wonder how it is possible for that to be the perception.

More than half of Americans age 16 and older helped neighbors and 23% formally volunteered during the pandemic, according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau and AmeriCorps. There are 2.2 million youth members in scouting between ages 5 and 21 and approximately 800,000 volunteers according to data from the Boys Scouts of America. There are approximately “2.5 million girl and adult members worldwide,” according to data from The Girl Scouts of the USA. There are more than 300,000 volunteers for the American Red Cross.

The Internal Revenue Service reports there are 1.5 million tax exempt organizations that employ (depending on whose numbers you’re using) between 10 and 14 percent of the U.S. workforce.

From these numbers alone it is difficult to fathom the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy’s numbers. There is no doubt the data is accurate as to the beliefs of those surveyed. Those ill-informed perceptions might also be the reason middle level donors seem to be disappearing.

The U.S. cannot function without nonprofit organizations from both a community support and an economic driver perspective. The question is why so few of a nationally projectable sample of citizens believe the sector has not touched them personally.
