Grant-making Roundtable - Topic for December 1, 2009

During these tough economic times, not-for-profits struggle to replace lost revenue, maintain donors and giving levels, and develop new revenue streams. Accounting methods usually don't factor in to fundraising efforts, but the exception to this is grants. How we manage and report grants can play a role in whether the grant will be repeated.

With this in mind, make plans to join us Tuesday, December 1, 2009 for a Grant-making roundtable. You'll hear from various grant-making organizations and foundations and learn what key indicators they review when selecting grant recipients.

Please note - this meeting has been scheduled a week later than usual to avoid conflicts the regularly scheduled meeting date (the Tuesday before Thanksgiving) would have brought on. We will resume our regular 4th Tuesday of the month schedule with the January, 2010 meeting.
