Welcome to the Nonprofit Association of Oregon

We Are Stronger Together

We hear a lot from Funders and the government saying they favor/approve of/encourage collaboration, but what does that mean in action? Our strength lies in our connections, our ability to learn from each other, and our collaborative efforts. NAO’s Jim White shares several big projects we are involved in and the tools we found helpful in achieving successful collaboration.

Northwest Nonprofit Capacity Survey

Your voice matters! By participating in this survey, you help us to understand the issues and trends supporting the nonprofit sector; factor this data into decision-making across your respective organizations and communities; and share the information with sector-wide stakeholders, funders, government, and community leaders.

Deadline extended: Complete by May 17.
