Revenue diversification involves creating multiple income streams to reduce financial risk and ensure sustainability. It is crucial for non-profits because it reduces dependency on a single funding source and mitigates the risks associated with fluctuations in donor support, grants, or economic downturns. Revenue diversification allows organizations to maintain consistent operations, invest in new programs, and adapt to changing circumstances, ultimately ensuring long-term sustainability and a greater capacity to fulfill their mission and serve their communities effectively.
