Far from being a drain on resources, Allen County's nonprofit human services agencies contribute more than $722 million to the local economy, according to a report issued Thursday.
The Alliance for Human Services, which comprises more than 50 local nonprofits, commissioned the report. It was released Thursday at a news conference at Turnstone's Plassman Athletic Center.
The event was attended by about 60 agency representatives and several government leaders.
According to the report, the county has 373 agencies that focus on providing for human needs out of more than 1,400 county nonprofits.
