Huff, R. (2015). Human Capital. Encyclopedia Britannica.<\/em><\/p>\n Millions of Americans are employed by nonprofit organizations and professionally engaged in nonprofit careers. Nonprofits employ more than 14.4 million people (estimated), accounting for more than 10 percent of total private employment. During 2003 to 2013, nonprofits outpaced businesses and the public sector in their percentage growth in employment. Total nonprofit wages are at least $634 billion a year. In addition to their own work, nonprofit employees offer essential support for unpaid volunteers (including board members) and, in turn, volunteers supply billions of hours of time annually. Volunteer labor is worth $167.2 billion a year. The nonprofit workforce contributes incalculable value to society through delivery of goods and services to communities that the public sector and the marketplace cannot or will not offer.
