Fun facts: The US nonprofit sector in a video nutshell

Check out this great video by the Ben Klasky, executive director of a Seattle-based nonprofit called IslandWood. He told me as part of his duties, he teaches a class on nonprofit management. He said his students are always stunned by the size of the nonprofit sector. (1 in 10 US workers are employed by nonprofits; revenues earned by US nonprofits are greater than the entire economies of Saudi Arabia and Sweden combined, etc.!)
So he made a video to make the point for all of us. Check it out!
