MISSISSIPPI NONPROFIT NEEDS ASSESSMENT CENSUS
Help us help you!
The Alliance works diligently each day to improve the support and services we offer Mississippi’s nonprofits—and it starts with getting to know you.
The information you provide helps us tailor our development tracks that fits your unique needs, gives you a valuable opportunity to gather key details often requested by potential funders as part of their decision-making process, and contributes to a stronger, more accurate picture of nonprofits across Mississippi. Your insights are critical to shaping the programs, services, and opportunities we offer!
While the census is in-depth, it doesn't take long to complete—and it’s a vital step in helping us support your work more effectively. All information you share is confidential and will never be sold or shared with outside parties.
If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact your local VISTA Community Outreach Specialist or call the Alliance at 601-968-0061.
Start your census today using the button below and simply use the forward arrow at the bottom of each page to continue. When finished, simply close the page in your browser.

Our VISTA Team
Through a partnership with AmeriCorps, our team of VISTA Community Outreach Specialists serve as dedicated volunteers with the Alliance, helping us support nonprofits and philanthropies across Mississippi. They conduct surveys, phone interviews, and site visits to gather meaningful data on the needs, gaps, and challenges faced by community organizations.
Their work plays a vital role in helping the Alliance design and deliver high-quality programming that meets the evolving needs of our members and the communities they serve.
If you are a nonprofit in Mississippi and have not yet completed your needs assessment census, your VISTA Community Outreach Specialist is actively attempting to contact you!
