Response, Recovery, Resiliency: What Nonprofits Need From Grantmakers During the COVID-19 Crisis
Join GEO and the Nonprofit Finance Fund for this webinar designed to help funders make sense of their role by understanding the different needs and opportunities in providing immediate response funding that enables organizations to survey and recovery funding that accelerates their path back.
Event Details
The COVID-19 crisis has created an unprecedented national calamity for nonprofits, many who are now cutting services, furloughing staff, and desperately trying to preserve their dwindling reserves if they are privileged to have any. What seems bold and uncomfortable one week seems quaint the next in this dynamic situation. Now private sector and government funders are responding. More than 175 community funds have been created, hundreds of funders have offered new flexibility to grantees, and the federal government has given nonprofits access to hundreds of billions of dollars of loans and grants for small business. How these resources flow and who accesses them will profoundly reshape the nonprofit landscape and the contours of inequity in our communities.
