In this article, I apply and discuss two alterative approaches for evaluating nonprofit fundraising practices. First, I introduce simple financial ratios, using a sample of New York state social welfare nonprofits. Then, I construct Adjusted Performance Measures, which attempt to neutralize the uncontrollable outside forces that nonprofits face in their fundraising. I compare the two types of measures statistically, and examine their respective strengths and weaknesses
