Roughly 10% of U.S. nonprofits are led by individuals from Black, Indigenous, and other communities of color, yet they only receive about 4% of grant dollars annually. The reasons for this are many, but it is no coincidence that over 90% of foundation CEOs are white.

In Nigeria, as in the US, people are looking for ways to fight food insecurity and maintain agricultural production amidst climate change and the changing rainfall patterns—including increased flooding—that it is triggering.

Nonprofits use financial statements to comply with IRS regulations, build trust with donors, and plan for the future.
