When you begin to understand non-profits, donations are
extremely important to enable the nonprofit to continue and
expand its mission. Just as it happens in business, nonprofits
look to expand their donor base and their program reach.
Oftentimes, nonprofits that are funded by individual donations
feel that if they reach out for the “large donations” like through
grants or corporate sponsors, their life will be easier. The
business issues with adding a new avenue of donations is the
same as it is in a for profit entity: What are the costs involved
in making this happen versus the eventual return. Furthermore,
corporate donors and/or grants can come and go with changes in
the economy or environment – which adds a large risk
dimension to this source of funds.
Additionally, charities need to allocate expenses to either
Program Service Expenses, Administrative expenses and Fund-
Raising expenses. Charity Navigator and many contributors
look to see how much and what % of total expenses are spent on
Program Service Expenses versus Administrative or Fund-
Raising Expenses. The higher the % of expenses spent on
program expenses, generally the better the charity is viewed.
You can find summary information on Human Options Inc.
(extracted from the Form 990) by searching for Human Options
Inc. (a California not for profit) on the website
CharityNavigator.org. Scroll down the page to view summary
information about the charity and other charities performing
similar work. The actual 990 can be found by visiting Human
Options’ website. (humanoptions.org)
When you review the information about Human Options, answer
the following questions:
2. 1. What is Human Options’ mission?
2. Did total contributions increase or decrease for 2019? What
was the main source of contributions for Human Options for
2019?
3. What comments do you have about the amount of money paid
to the executive officer relative to the size of the charity and
relative to other similar charities?
4. For the most recent year, what percent of total expenses were
allocated to each of the categories: Program Services,
Administrative Services, and Fundraising? Did total Program
expenses increase or decrease from the prior year and does that
seem reasonable to you?
5. Based on Human Options’ mission, if you were auditing
Human Options what kind of expenses would you expect to see
classified as program expenses (ie, expenses that directly relate
to the mission).
