    Call for Information   

    a nonprofit group asks:

    "We would like to conduct a social impact study of our members that  illustrate the programmatic impact nonprofits have on the community. We have been able to find reports for the economic impact of nonprofits, but not a compilation of their social impact, their program benchmarks, as it were. Do you know of any reports or organizations that are doing this kind of work that we could link with or use their survey work?"

    Indeed, we have extensive information here:

    Social Impact of Nonprofits
    Philanthropy and Social Impact
