  • Coffee Break - 2025 State of BC's Non-Profit the Sector Survey - Joyce Lin and Tyler Arnold
    In this episode of Coffee Chat, Joyce Lin and Tyler Arnold from the Vantage Point team talk about the importance of the 2025 State of BC’s Non-Profit Sector Survey and why they’re inviting voices from across the province to take part.
    Now in its fifth year, the survey offers a crucial check-in on the realities non-profits in BC are facing. Joyce shares the story of how this initiative began during the pandemic and how it has become a powerful tool to support funding decisions, government relations, and sector-wide advocacy.
    Tyler explains how sector data is helping to shape submissions to government and why it’s essential for telling a clear, collective story of the sector’s needs and strengths. This year’s survey also includes new questions about funding, staffing, and organizational capacity to better capture the challenges non-profits are navigating right now.
    📅 The survey is open until July 18 and takes about 20 minutes to complete.
    📊 Results will be shared this fall through a summary report and new interactive data dashboards.
