Hawaii Community Foundation’s Post

"As part of the #WHY15 campaign, Nonprofit New York celebrates a $58 million restoration to city libraries, allowing them to serve their communities on Sundays, and a number of cultural institutions were relieved to find themselves back at baseline budget levels." "It is important to note that too many nonprofits and agencies did not see crucial funding restored. Some of these nonprofits will be forced to close their doors because their organizational needs were zeroed out of the recently approved budget. Nonprofits supporting the parks and open spaces - places that are crucial to public health and safety - are forced, once again, to confront the challenges created by a consistent lack of investment and funding."

Salvatore Alaimo, friend of the Nonprofit SnapCast, is a Professor of Nonprofit Management with the School of Community Leadership and Development at Grand Valley State University. He visits with Mickey to talk about the myth that nonprofits are not allowed to lobby, and to make a case that ALL #nonprofits should absolutely be #lobbying to the limits of the law. You Can Lobby, Too. Things we discuss: * Fewer than 3% of all nonprofits engage in any lobbying. * The vast majority of E.D.s erroneously think they are not allowed to do any lobbying. * How to get nonprofits to engage. * Reasons to get into lobbying now.

Today we celebrate National Nonprofit Day! Let's take a moment to recognize the enormous impact that all non-profits make in our community. The nonprofit sector impacts every resident across Massachusetts. According to the Massachusetts Nonprofit Network (MNN), there are more than 38,000 nonprofits in our state, that are committed to educating us, keeping us healthy, supporting our most vulnerable populations, and caring for our cultural, historical, and environmental treasures. Our nonprofit sector is also a major economic driver in our state, employing nearly 20% of the state's workforce. A major thank you to all nonprofit workers for their dedication and life-changing work! As a nonprofit and a coalition member of Massachusetts’ 12 Children’s Advocacy Centers (CACs), we pioneer the most promising, leading-edge ways that help victims of child abuse receive the best possible care. Our work enables an integrated, multidisciplinary team response to child abuse, and is committed to strengthening collaboration and driving systemic and societal change to protect children.
