SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
To Profit or Not to Profit is a coordinated set of studies of why fund-raising for nonprofits is mimicking that of private firms and what consequences it is having. User fees and revenue from "ancillary" activities - those not contributing directly to the organization mission except for the profit generated - are mushrooming, with each having important side effects. User fees may price out of the market some of the nonprofit's target group. Ancillary activities may distract the nonprofit from its central mission. These issues are examined from two perspectives. One focuses on issues that apply to nonprofits generally. A second set of studies focuses on specific industries.
