“95 percent of nonprofit respondents need and want more pro bono support. Yet most have a startling lack of knowledge and information about where to get it. 95 percent do not know to which companies they should appeal and 97 percent do not know who in a company to approach. This lack of familiarity about how to secure pro bono could be driven by the fact that 50 percent of corporate donors do not offer skilled volunteer support, despite a belief in its value.”
