SINT MAARTEN (SAUNDERS) – St. Maarten, like the rest of the world, has experienced and struggles against the setbacks afforded by the COVID-19 crisis. Our civic society organizations/ non-profit sector has a long history of supporting our community in insurmountable ways, ranging from creative activities to caring services.
As we have experienced challenging times with lots of insecurities concerning employment, the financial position of government, and the instability and uncertainty of businesses, the non-profit sector has been an essential component in helping the community to overcome our toughest moments.
Therefore, NPOwer set off on a journey to explore how NPOs fared during the time of the COVID-19 lock down. The project performed a cross-sectional study not only to survey how the NPO’s were doing, but also how their beneficiaries/clients were weathering the storm.
After five grueling weeks of collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data of 96 nonprofit organizations, the NPOwer team is excited to announce that we are finally at the stage where we are ready to release what we have found.
The NPOwer project has a few goals for the survey and they are as follows:
Although initiated by NPOwer, the survey was a conjoined effort between various stakeholders and community partners.
The pubic will be able to access the report through the NPOwer website at https://www.npowersxm.com/.
