Tens of billions of dollars are still available for charitable nonprofits, but only if state and local governments commit to spending those funds on nonprofits (as opposed to elsewhere) by the end of 2024. Otherwise, the federal government may claw back uncommitted funds. The networks of the National Council of Nonprofits are hosting a special, nationwide webinar to make sure charitable nonprofits know they are eligible for these resources and know how to access them before it’s too late.
Joining us for this one-hour event will be Treasury Deputy Secretary Wally Adeyemo to kick off the discussion of how nonprofits can access remaining Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds made possible through the American Rescue Plan Act. He and other speakers will address the availability of these funds, priorities that deserve special attention, and examples of what works.
Among topics to be addressed are:
- How to find out what funds are still available.
- How to advocate for the funds (there usually is no a RFP or funding notice to apply for).
- How to tailor the “ask” to the needs and priorities of the governments you are approaching.
- What timelines and deliverables do you need to know about.
See the event website for additional information.
