I see your point and I agree it has worked for some things. Although I truly believe 71% is a very high estimate extrapolated from surveys that are most likely performed online and the participants are between 13 and 65, maybe one or two older than that per 500 people surveyed.
And I think we’re going backwards in many ways due to misinformation, poor education and lack of critical thinking, and a lack of purpose for the middle and lower classes. The digital age is driving separation instead of solving it.

Participants between 13 and 65 is most people.

Forgive me, but it seems like you're trying really hard to find a reason why things are worse than they are.

So hard to make yourself the victim if things are not as bad as you want.

I don't think it's that. I think people have a tendency to get really invested in a cause, and derive all their sense of purpose from it. So, when the aims of the cause are reached, they have trouble letting go, because it feels like life will be meaningless without it. They're driven to find a way to keep it going.

The awful, ironic thing, of course, is that the actions taken in the name of keeping the cause going often wind up undermining it and eroding the gains that had been made.

This strikes me as incredibly shortsighted, as even when the aims are reached there's still maintenance that can be done or a related cause to take up.

Maintenance doesn't make non-profits money the way that acting as if no progress has been made does.

I think that depends on the nature of the non-profit. Something like theaters will achieve a goal of, say, an equipment upgrade, but they will still have outreach programs and other ongoing efforts that are less milestone-like in nature. It's similar with botanical gardens, nonprofit newsrooms, and even various mental health interventions. Certain one time goals can be achieved, but the non-profit will still keep its services running long term to ensure continued safety/thriving for those who use those services.
