Abstract

Over the past years, indigenous nonprofit organizations in Africa have faced challenges in increasing revenue for their work. Consequently, many of them are venturing into social enterprising to increase their income and reduce their dependence on donations. This is connected to the resource dependency school of thought in the operation of social enterprising organizations, which suggests that nonprofit organizations’ increased reliance on earned income is associated with cutbacks in philanthropic giving. The decreased government and donor attention to supporting charity organizations is pushing many local nonprofit organizations in Malawi to create new sources of income for their charity work. Essentially, the businesses for nonprofits in Malawi are being created to ensure that such nonprofit organizations are able to raise enough funds for their charity mission and the organization’s flourishing.
