sector contributes almost $322 billion in wages to the US economy.
The non-profit

trade, and construction industries.

non-profit arts and culture industry generates $166.2 billion in economic
activity every year: $63.1 billion in spending by organizations and an
additional $103.1 billion in event-related spending by their audiences.
Nonprofits work in
every community: caring for returning soldiers, rebuilding cities, educating
children, supporting the workforce, nursing the sick, supporting our elders,
elevating the arts, mentoring our youth, protecting natural resources, and
more.
