Nonprofit Standards is an annual national benchmarking survey of nonprofit organizations across a variety of sectors, including health and human services, higher education, grantmakers, and public charities. While intended to provide a valuable baseline analysis for organizations of all sizes and types, it would be impossible to capture the variety and diversity of the entire nonprofit sector.
This overarching view of nonprofit organizations includes drilldowns by annual revenue so readers have access to data from a narrower peer group. For the purposes of this survey, nonprofits are categorized in three groups according to annual revenues:
Midrange Organizations: Annual revenues under $25 million.
Upper-Midrange Organizations: Annual revenues between $25 million and $75 million.
Large Organizations: Annual revenues of $76 million or greater.
