Problem1 : You are the head of the Community Foundation of the Ozark Mountains. Your community foundation is progressive, you have a reasonable amount of funds for a community of your size, and there are two environmental nonprofits in your region with similar missions. One of the nonprofits is called Save the Ozark River, whose mission is to protect the quality of the Ozark River, and the other nonprofit is Scenic Ozark, a land trust that buys land to preserve unique natural habitats and scenic vistas. Each nonprofit has been around for 50 years since the environmental movement started. However, the community foundation has been giving support to each nonprofit for the last 10 years and notices that their missions are very similar, they have been competing for the same donor base, they each have educational programs with the local schools, etc. The community foundation needs to spend more money on social services and wants to reduce its support for environmental groups. As chair of the community foundation, describe 5-7 ways in which you would present an argument, along with incentives to the leaders of the two nonprofits that their organizations should merge.
