Guess which non-profit sector is down...and why

In a time of economic recession, giving to human services should be up to match increased need. The reality is that this unlikely sector of the non-profit world is down 3.4%. Donor Power Blog raises a great question:

In a down economy, when the very situations these organizations are built to help change are everywhere and top of mind, why are they raising less money?

If giving is down in your church, are you ignoring the problem in hopes that it will go away, or are you asking the hard questions that lead to organizational change?
