Abstract: Abstract The sustainability of a foundation as a nonprofit organization depends on donations from domestic and abroad and the influence of its leaders. Donation influences whether the foundation can continue its services. Based on several studies, it was found that the foundation’s sustainability does not only depend on financial sources or its leaders but on its consistency in carrying out its vision, mission, and values, openness to diversity, and volunteerism spirit of all foundation elements’ behavior. This research aims to find the influence of organizational behavior: individuals, division/groups and organization’s structure on the effectiveness and sustainability of a foundation. The study is qualitative descriptive research. The data collection was conducted on the respondents through interviews/questionnaires, direct observation, and literature studies or related documents and references. After an in-depth analysis of the research results, it can be concluded that organizational behavior is greatly affected by the foundation’s sustainability and becomes one of the main determinants that is believed to be stronger than financial and leadership. The study’s results can be a reference for nonprofit organizations to remain to exist to continue their works in social, religious, or humanitarian fields.
