Episode notes

“Simply put non-profits matter in communities and people depend on their services” - Anna Koob

In this episode our featured voices are Jacob Harold the Executive Vice President and Anna Koob the Director of Data Standards of Candid. Back in April 2020 when we decided to create this series on Covid-19’s impact first on nonprofits and then on small businesses in the San Francisco Bay we like you had no idea how long the pandemic would go on and what the health and economic impact would be on our community. Over these past nine months we’ve talked to over 33 nonprofits and small businesses about how Covid-19 and the subsequent economic meltdown is impacting their ability to continue to provide services and products as well as to just survive. 

We wanted to end 2020 hosting an interview with Jacob and Anna and ask them to walk us through their findings, insights and recommendations from their published national and state analysis on how many nonprofits will shut down because of the COVID-19 pandemic
