Resumo(s)
This chapter seeks to provide empirical evidence of the financial shocks that non-profits experienced
during the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic lockdown period. The research included a
literature review of the main up-to-date publications to understand non-profits’ financial vulnerabilities.
The statistical analyses’ results facilitate a fuller understanding of the impacts that the abrupt loss of
clients, volunteers, and employees due to the pandemic has had on non-profits’ finances. These results
are discussed in light of the previous studies. Through computer-assisted text analysis, this study examined non-profit managers’ perceptions of the most significant challenges faced by these organisations
in the pandemic’s initial phase. The findings reveal a dramatic situation characterised by a decrease in
revenues and increase in expenses, in which non-profits regulated by Portugal’s social welfare private
institutions statutes were the most strongly affected. The most salient challenges identified include technological preparedness, safety assurance, and physical distancing.
