There are over 1.5 million nonprofit organizations in the United States representing 5.7% of our economy. However, the U.S. boasts about 15% of the world’s nonprofits. Why do people start nonprofits? Is it for the greater good, attention-seeking behavior, or something different?

On the latest episode of Cautious Coffee, DeRae and Austin discuss the issue of people wanting to start nonprofits without fully understanding themselves or the world around them. While the allure of gaining influence and becoming important can take over – and what was initially prioritized can take a back seat – the show breaks down social impact motivations and the tradeoffs involved.
