About this grant

This grant provides general purposes support to the Association for Research on Nonprofit Organizations & Voluntary Action. This membership association of more than 1,100 scholars and nonprofit practitioners promotes research on voluntary action, nonprofit organizations, philanthropy, and civil society. Over 20 percent of its members come from outside the United States.

Its principal activities consist of an annual conference, publications including the Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly, and electronic discussion groups.
