I am curious about whether this is US-centric or is global in nature; which countries are these respondents from? This is somewhat important, I believe. I understand the online factor.

As we note above, the survey was conducted and distributed online, so yes, the sample is biased to those who at least have online access. As for being biased towards larger orgs, only 18% of those surveyed have a staff of more than 25 people. So I guess it depends on what you consider a large org. Not sure I agree that volunteer-run groups are the \"overwhelming majority\" of social change organizations, though I do believe they are all too often overlooked -- see: http://www.dotorganize.net/report/increase_offerings Cheers, Leda Thanks for the feedback, Aaron.

Perhaps the report author(s) would care to comment on whether this is likely? Also there seems to be a bias towards larger organizations. I think the 15% of groups that are volunteer-run make up the overwhelming majority of social change organizations. I'm very interested in how their concerns might differ from those of the larger groups?
