Did you know that before 2014 when the Office of Management and Budget’s Uniform Grant Guidance was issued, there were multiple cost circulars and federal regulations that focused on specific organizations by type (i.e. hospitals, education organizations, nonprofits)? I remember having to look at different documents to figure out the rules to follow. Even though the Uniform Grant Guidance isn’t perfect, it is just one document 😊 . OMB keeps updating it based on feedback from the public, and more positive changes coming soon. We’ll share more once the updated guidance is issued.

Here is a fun activity! Two years ago, I produced some materials for nonprofit boards to educate board members, volunteers and staffers on key governance, fundraising and strategic planning duties. And truly, they’re free and available on my website for downloads. They can be used in entirety or as individual sheets for board education “lessons.” But my next question is - what else does your organization need when it comes to well-curated, edited and available FREE educational resources. Because … I’m feeling productive and creative so I plan to deliver several more resources for nonprofits this summer. Some include understanding program evaluation, better human-centered program design and collective impact through collaboration. I will also put together my advocacy and education guides complete with how to build your own platform. So what else do you all need? What can I get for you? Information and education must be free and democratized. Regardless if you are a past, current, future or “probably never” client, nonprofits and the people we serve deserve free access to information.
