The Institute for Nonprofit Organization Management
at the University of San Francisco was established in 1983 and remains
one of the nation's most highly regarded centers for nonprofit management
education and research. Its research activities, especially its ethnic
philanthropy study and California Nonprofit Database project, have charted
new areas of knowledge. Its books, articles, working papers, and case
collections have been used in hundreds of university classes and nonprofit
training sessions. The Institute offers conferences, seminars, workshops,
lectures, and professional networking designed to serve and strengthen
the nonprofit sector in the Bay Area and beyond. The Institute sponsors
national conferences that explore important but little researched topics
in philanthropy and nonprofit organization management. Conference papers,
later published in book form, serve as invaluable resources for practitioners,
scholars, funders, and policy makers. To foster discussion on major topics
related to nonprofit management and philanthropy, the Institute presents
free community lectures by nationally recognized leaders. The Institute's
studies of California nonprofit activity and the philanthropic
values and behavior of the nation's diverse communities have made a major
contribution to this new scholarly field.
