MS Nonprofit Census

YOU COUNT!

Please take time to complete the census so we can get to know about all the valuable work you do!

Three reasons why completing the census is important…

1st
Getting to know your organization is vital in our mission to assist in your success; and the information you provide helps us tailor a development track especially for your non-profit.

2nd
The Census gives you the opportunity to identify and gather much of the information a potential funder wants to know about your organization as they make their funding decisions.

3rd
As information is compiled, analyzed, and reported out, you as Mississippians will have control over your own narrative about the DEIAB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility and Belonging) environment and progress in our state.

All information that you share is confidential and will not be sold or shared with anyone. Please note that throughout the survey, questions marked with an asterisk (*) require a response. Most questions are single word answer or multiple choice. Just a few ask for a slightly longer response and are generally optional. Your input is critical for The Alliance’s planning and decision-making process about the programs, services, and opportunities we offer to meet your needs.

Just go to alliancems.org, select Initiatives, then select MS Nonprofit Census. You do not have to fill out the census in one session…you will be able to return later using the same browser to complete your census. If you have any questions/concerns or need assistance, please email connect@alliancems.org or call 601-968-0061.

Thanks to all our member organizations who have already completed the census!
