Report: Nonprofits Eyeing Mergers

Nonprofit leaders are generally feeling positive about their missions, according to a new survey, though many are keeping an eye on partnerships and mergers to remain sustainable.

The 2025 Nonprofit Standards Benchmarking Report, released last week and conducted by the consultancy BDO, is based on a survey of 250 leaders at charities, colleges and universities, NGOs, foundations and other groups. The survey was conducted in May and June 2025.
