A report by the National Assembly of State Arts Agencies; figures included in this report reflect revised fiscal year 2009 budgets as well as anticipated funding levels for fiscal year 2010, which began in July 2009 for most states.
Key findings in a TRG project with the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance show a strong link between people who vote and arts patrons:
One Third of voters in the 2008 Presidential Election were arts patrons
One Half of voters participating in ALL elections (Municipal, Primary, and General) between 2006 and 2008 were arts patrons
A paper by the State Arts Action Network (SAAN), a network of Americans for the Arts.
Sparked is the world's first (their claim) entirely-online volunteer network and it's free for non-profits! It appears that after sign-up, the non-profit submits a project. It then gets posted for Sparked's registered volunteers who consider offering their help to causes they believe in. The promise for the non-profit of course, is a pool of highly qualified volunteers who want to help but may not always have a great deal of time to contribute. Hence, the term 'microvolunteering.'
From Sparked.com:
"What is microvolunteering?
Microvolunteering has four defining characteristics:
Convenient It's volunteerism that fits into your schedule when you have time - typically (but not necessarily) via an internet connected device such as a personal computer or mobile phone. In practice, to achieve this level of convenience, there is often no training or vetting necessary by the nonprofit.
Bite-sized Volunteer tasks are broken into small(-ish) pieces, so that you can complete a task in the time you have available (whatever that time may be).
Crowdsourced The nonprofit that needs help asks a large(-ish) group for assistance. Micro-volunteers who have the time, interest, and skills (ideally), and who may be previously unknown to the nonprofit, do the work.
Network-managed The time demands of the manager (e.g. a nonprofit staffer) are reduced by distributing as much of the project management and quality review as possible to the network of micro-volunteers. This work management method differs from a top-down model of project management."
