Special Edition on Health Care Nonprofits Excluded, Overlooked, and Ignored (Again)
Despite the significant roles that nonprofits play in local communities and as partners to governments in delivering vital health, safety, education, and other services, public policymakers routinely overlook nonprofits.The most recent example has been the exclusion of nonprofit employers from health care
reform. More at http://www.tano.org/en/art/945/
Nonprofits rally against reduced charitable deduction rate
President Obama announced his plans for sweeping reform of the healthcare system, talk of a "public option" and alleged "death panels" has raised a ruckus at town hall meetings across the country. For many nonprofits, the term "reduced charitable deduction rate" is at the top of the list of the ire-breeding aspects of current proposals as the president attempts to find a way to finance healthcare reform.

 Risk Management Webinar: Volunteer Protection Act
Wednesday, October 7 More than 10 years have lapsed since the passage of the Volunteer Protection Act, the federal law that was intended to remove the fear of liability from the hearts of nonprofit volunteers. This webinar will explore the landscape of volunteering since the passage of this law. Details and register at http://www.tano.org/en/art/880/FREE Webinar: Starting a Nonprofit - Tuesday 13-Oct-09
Nonprofit organizations are different than businesses and government; not better or worse, but different. These differences should not be glossed over as you explore whether the creation of a nonprofit is the best way to achieve the goals or purposes you seek to achieve.

 Tracks to Success How to Build a Successful Fundraising Team:
Scouting for New Players, Knowing the Team Positions Part 2 of 9
When general managers look at their 25-man roster during the offseason, they have to reflect on what their club did well and where it fell short in the previous season. Maybe they need a lead-off hitter, a good middle reliever, or an experienced utility player. Maybe they need all three. Their goal? Get their team to the post-season, and then on to the World Series. The preparatory work you do before recruiting your fundraising team is fairly similar. See full article at http://www.tano.org/en/art/898/ |
