About us
Independent Sector is the only national membership organization that brings together a diverse community of changemakers, nonprofits, foundations, and corporations working to strengthen civil society and ensure all people in the United States thrive. Independent Sector formed in 1980 when Coalition of National Voluntary Organizations and the National Council on Philanthropy merged into one umbrella organization to help promote sensible national policies and communicate the value of a strong and unified charitable community. From its headquarters in Washington, DC, Independent Sector advocates for public policies that affect the charitable sector, builds knowledge on behalf of the sector, and connects the hard-working organizations and leaders within the sector.

This past weekend we celebrated #NationalNonprofitDay! On this day and every day, we honor the dedication and impact of nonprofit workers who strengthen our communities. #IndependentSector and #UnitedForALICE are excited to share a preview of our upcoming report, ALICE in the Nonprofit Workforce, launching next month.

Stay tuned for insights and learn how you can join us in supporting these vital workers.
