If it isn't, we'd love to help you get there with our Finish Strong: Year-end Giving Package. Learn more here: https://www.innovnp.com/nonprofit-year-end-giving-package

Some interesting findings out of the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. The findings show that many Americans interact with nonprofits without recognizing those interactions as nonprofit service use. Nonprofits receive higher confidence scores than many other institutions, but confidence remains limited and may be shaped by public figures. Most respondents do not expect the universal charitable deduction to change their giving, and views remain mixed on whether nonprofits or government should provide for people’s basic needs.

The new report What Americans Think About Nonprofits & Philanthropy 2026 from the IU Lilly Family School of Philanthropy and funded by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation found:

Americans remain uncertain about the direction of the sector. More than half of respondents (53.5%) said they did not know whether the nonprofit and philanthropic sector was headed in the right direction or was on the wrong track.

Between real-world scenarios, peer conversations, and a little friendly competition during our fan-favorite Jeopardy segment, participants are learning by doing, not just by listening.

A big congratulations to this round’s Jeopardy champions! 🏆
