Non-Profit Organization Analysis

Improved Essays
The non-profit organization ISPIRE founded by Jesse Ramirez and his wife Blanca Trejo is one to my interest due to the reasons that I was involved with the organization. To empower the youth, families, and communities is their main purpose of the organization, but their main focus is getting students enrolled in high school to find and create a pathway after high school yet at the same time to see improvements within themselves. INSPIRE applies all types of services in their practices towards the main goal.
When it comes to the service of charity, INSPIRE is a 501 c3 public charity which means people can donate to INSPIRE and their money is tax deductible, it also means the organization is a tax exempt. There are different types of organizations who use the status different. One thing to keep in mind is, INSPIRE is a program based organization. The funds given to the organization are used towards the program for necessary expenses towards trainings, organizing, etc. so then the people involved don’t need to pay for the necessities and luxuries of what the program offers.

A lot of direct service is done within schools, mainly high schools. An example I was able to part take in was when the principle of Hinkley High School came to the INSPIRE group with an issue that the sophomore 2015 class has become the class with the worst grades, attendance, and involvement. So we took the initiative of speaking in front of sophomore students during class, with the permission of teachers, to give have them thinking about their choices compared to our choices. It was a success, which improved all three areas by showing the students what the upperclassmen have overcome when in their

    In many areas, a pub is the central establishment of the community. In the video “Portland’s Non-Profit” edited by CBS News, reporter Luke Burbank recognizes an up and coming pub in Oregon with different tactics. Burbank interviews different customers with similar opinions on the pub. A non-profit organization is one that is dedicated to a particular cause, true, but I do not believe that any organization as such is solely non-profit for many reasons. For one many people think of the word profit in terms of just money which it is not.…

    I have worked for many years for a non-profit organization and have have the privilege of being able to compare a nonprofit environment to that of a for profit company. In my experience, I have seen what goes in to acquiring donations from individuals and what their reaction's are to the amounts that may be asked of them. For example, people see my agency as a community based agency that helps people in all aspects of their lives: economically, socially, environmentally and even in the health field. As an agency we offer programs that provide mental health services, youth programs, group homes for the mentally impaired, resources to help with rental deposits, food banks, diaper banks and many other services that help the people in the community.…

    Historically, not-for-profit (NFP) hospitals evolved from either religious groups or philanthropic foundations and provided health care to individuals that could not afford to pay the doctor to come to their home (Cutler, 2000), hence, they provided a service to the community that the community would otherwise be required to provide. These organizations generated little income and as such were granted tax exempt status (Cutler, 2000). Modernization of healthcare has transformed hospitals from places for the poor to seek care to places for society to receive care and as such the historical support for the tax exempt status has grown less relevant and in actuality, it can difficult in today’s healthcare environment to easily distinguish between for-profit (FP) and not-for-profit (NFP) organizations and the care and services they provide.…

    Positive Influence on WCHS While attending WCHS I have tried to make a positive impact on not only my peers, but the facility as well, whether it's a simple good morning or a smile while walking down the hall. I have tried to obtain leadership roles in various extracurricular activities throughout my high school career to help make a bigger impact on kids life's.

Simple things can turn around someone's day, FFA donates can goods, also dog and cat food to local animal shelters. I know when I donate and see the impact it has it makes me feel like a better person, the feeling is indescribable.…

    In order to understand how research is used by public relations professionals of nonprofit organizations, one first must understand their target publics: clients and donors, along with media and town/city officials. Nonprofits use research for a multitude of reasons, but a prominent motive for their studies is to understand how they can best adapt their programming to meet the needs and availability of their publics. “Real research is a systematic process to seek answers to questions and understanding phenomena. Ultimately, research is a way to achieve certainty” (Zhou & Sloan). Marketing research is essentially the research process used to acquire information regarding problems a nonprofit organization is facing - it is implemented to correct…

    Week One Assignment After reading the assignment this week, I realized that the book brought awareness to a lot of issues and concern in the nonprofit world that the average person does not think about including me.

    There are three basic questions that can be used to evaluate nonprofits; whom should nonprofits benefit? What kind of acts should they undertake? And how should they operate? These questions never have easy answers and certainly don’t have any one answer. Nonprofits are an area that instead of being a structured entity, they fill the gaps that the structured for profit, and government organizations fail to, or are not equipped to address.…

The audience which were American citizens were sought to help these survivors attain harmony by donating and gaining awareness of the genocide. To effectively portray the organization as a way of mourning, I used ethos, pathos, logos and tried to convince why the audience should donate.…

    Non-profit organisations agree to operate especially to achieve a charitable mission. Non-profit organisations have different missions, but they all share the same general purpose which is to benefit society in a tangible way.
