We are so excited to invite you to participate in an interactive, facilitated dialogue between nonprofits and funders, diving into the most pressing challenges facing the nonprofit workforce – and to consider real solutions for change.
We all know that the nonprofit sector is staffed by a skilled, passionate and powerful workforce. And yet, the workforce faces major challenges, including burnout, recruitment, retention, and providing living wages. There have been various efforts in California and across the nation to reform government contracting and encourage funders to adopt funding the “full costs” of grantees. These efforts have faced major obstacles, and yet nonprofits continue to work unabated to fulfill missions that enrich communities. The time is now for nonprofits and funders to come together to reimagine the sector, to support thriving and equitable nonprofit jobs and workplaces with the capacity to strengthen their communities.
At NCG, we believe that funders should take full advantage of every tool in their grantmaking toolbox to advance their systems-change, power-building, and racial equity goals. 501(c)4-aligned funding can accelerate movement building, strengthen our democracy, and advance racial equity.
Join us for an in-person grant writing training that brings together community-based organizations, nonprofits, and Tribes in and around Salinas and the Monterey Bay Region to learn about pursuing grant funds to support your organization’s vision and values. An emphasis will be building organizational capacity to address climate resilience initiatives. Registration, coffee, and networking at 8:30 a.m., program starts at 9 a.m.
Miguel asks: “Why do y’all think so many foundations are unwilling to give out more than the minimum payout? How can we convince larger foundations to give more than what is legally required?”
