Andrea highlights the challenges facing not-for-profits, emphasising the need for adaptable models due to rising living costs, housing issues, and food insecurity. Andrea also discusses NFPAS's focus on financial management, board education, and governance to support sustainability in the sector.

Andrea stresses balancing innovation with stability, efficient resource use and technology adoption that includes AI for improved operations. We also discuss the importance of informed board decisions, volunteer management and strategic planning to help future-proof not-for-profits.
