Return on Investment: The Economic Impact 
of the Nonprofit Sector in Colorado
A joint product of the Johns Hopkins Center for Civil Society Studies, Corona Research, Inc. and the Colorado Nonprofit Association
Most people recognize that Colorado’s nonprofit sector – a rich array of organizations of diverse sizes and purposes, operating in every region of the state – delivers crucial services that bring help and hope to people in need.
What’s not so well known is that the sector is also a major economic force, whose vitality contributes in countless ways to the economic health of the state.
This two-part study presents the first-ever comprehensive picture of the scope and current trends in this important, but often overlooked, component of Colorado’s economy and society. It brings both the scale of Colorado’s nonprofit sector and the economic effect of its activities into sharp focus. It also shows that individuals, companies and government agencies who support Colorado’s nonprofit sector can expect an exceptionally good return on their investment.
