Comments on: Nonprofits and Employee Attrition – The Truth Hurts http://www.pamelasgrantwritingblog.com/298/nonprofits-and-employee-attrition/ Nonprofit Fundraising and Grantwriting for the One-Person Shop Thu, 02 Feb 2012 18:17:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Dana Wilson http://www.pamelasgrantwritingblog.com/298/nonprofits-and-employee-attrition/comment-page-1/#comment-195 Dana Wilson Fri, 22 Jan 2010 23:40:00 +0000 http://www.pamelasgrantwritingblog.com/?p=298#comment-195 The sad thing is that there are still nonprofits asking us to work for free (even worse then this one for $12/hr), and then only if we get a grant get some money. To me that's like asking an accountant to do your taxes, and he only gets paid if you get a refund. An accountant should be paid regardless of the outcome, and so should grant writers.

However, I've seen tons of ads just like this, and I wonder why the bar is so high and the pay so low. Maybe if the organization truly can't afford to pay reasonable salaries for the skills they need, they should think about closing their doors. Just a thought.
