Trends in the Nonprofit Sector that Affect Consultants
If you’re feeling uncertain about our field and your future, you are not alone!
Many nonprofits are under increasing pressure, and as consultants, it’s our job to help them.
The good news? Nonprofit consultants like you are ready and able to help the sector navigate these challenges.
BURNOUT
Burnout among nonprofit leaders is rising quickly—and staff morale is dropping.
FUNDING
Financial sustainability is keeping nonprofit leaders up at night. Fundraising remains a top challenge for nonprofits—and the funding landscape is growing more difficult. In the past year, 40% of nonprofit CEOs report reduced foundation funding and 36% report reduced federal funding.
PRESSURE
The pressure on nonprofits is increasing from all sides. Demand for community services is rising, the high costs of inflation are taking a toll on nonprofit budgets, and funding is not keeping up
CAPACITY
Two-thirds of nonprofits are experiencing capacity issues related to staff hiring, retention, and burnout.

Six-figure businesses are possible
—especially if that’s one of your goals.
The average gross “billing” for consultants in 2025 was
$124,000
Other data shows that, in 2025, median annual earnings for full-time consultants were
$87,000
Nonprofit Consulting Businesses Are Growing—
You Can Be a Part of It
There is so much opportunity to do good while building a business you love. According to the latest survey data on our sector:
Average hourly rates for consultants are rising: from $151/hour in 2024 to $159/hour in 2025.
Most consultants are spending 20-24 “billable hours” per week on client work. Consultants also reported spending 5-14 hours per week ON their businesses—that means doing tasks not related to client services.
Part-time consulting businesses are viable models. Part-time consultants may earn less, but they work fewer hours while gaining flexibility and freedom.
Age is not a hindrance to building your business. Half of nonprofit consultants are age 45 or over—meaning they’re bringing a wealth of knowledge and experience the sector desperately needs to navigate today’s challenges.
Referrals are the bread and butter of nonprofit businesses. That means building and cultivating networks is key to a thriving business.
Invest in your success. We are here to help.

Why the Nonprofit Consulting Conference Is Going Virtual in 2027
For the past three years, we’ve held the Nonprofit Consulting Conference in person. But things are changing for a lot of us. Travel costs are rising. People are relocating. Costs for services and subscriptions are pinching business and personal budgets.
But consultants still need professional development and networking opportunities.
That’s why Funding for Good decided to meet you online in 2027.
The 2027 Nonprofit Consulting Conference will be:
- N100% online
- NAccessible and practical for all US time zones
- NIncludes a vault of conference handouts, presentations, and replays available until December 31, 2027.
