In the for-profit dot.com world, the bottom line is easy to measure — it comes down to dollars and cents. For nonprofit organizations, success is more difficult to define.

Additional funding was provided by the Beldon Fund and the Surdna Foundation) is the first of its kind look at the effectiveness of major American nonprofit organizations using the Internet to raise money and influence public policy.
