Order Manuscript Editing Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly publishes research from many disciplines and methods on nonprofits, philanthropy, voluntary action, and civil society around the world. It is the journal of the Association for Research on Nonprofit Organizations and Voluntary Action.
