Staff and Overview


Nonprofit organizations make tremendous contributions to the quality of life in Massachusetts. But policy-makers, funders, and the public need to hear it loud and clear. In 2007, hundreds of 501(c)(3) and (c)(4) nonprofits statewide began to find their voice and speak as one when MassNonprofitNet launched as the sector's unifying statewide association focusing on advocacy, capacity-building, and public awareness.

Mission

Led by 21 directors and working with input from 350 members, MassNonprofitNet is developing steps to fulfill its mission: to strengthen Massachusetts through nonprofit advocacy, capacity-building, and public awareness.
