The state with the fewest charities per person is Utah, with one for every 546 people; Nevada, Mississippi, Arizona and South Carolina also make up the bottom five. As with any company, there’s going to be some uncertainty about the future when starting a nonprofit. If you want to keep your organization afloat, it helps to know how many of them fail, where they fail and why. This isn’t meant to be taken as gospel—we certainly can’t tell the future.

Human services organizations and fraternal societies seem to be particularly at-risk, as are organizations in Mississippi and South Carolina. If your U.S.-based based nonprofit still hasn't filed its 2009 Form 990, the clock is ticking. Regardless of size, any nonprofit that hasn't filed a 990 by October 15 is in danger of losing its nonprofit status. We've discussed the change a few times since a new law was passed in 2006 requiring all nonprofits to file.

Their blood pumps through us as surely as the Mississippi River flows, but our mother’s impact in our lives often has little to do with genetics. It’s been a really long time since I’ve sat down to write. You know the deal—you get sidetracked, distracted, overwhelmed and overworked, and soon the thing you loved to do becomes a chore, so you don’t.
