The Form 990 is the IRS filing required of most nonprofits. It has been significantly amended. In addition to the "core" portion that must be filled out by all organizations, there are now numerous schedules that may be required, depending on the organization and operation of the particular nonprofit. It should be noted that the instructions have only recently been issued in final form. The new form will be required for large organizations beginning this year (reporting for 2008, filed in 2009), with a phase-in for most nonprofits over the next two years. Because of the significant changes and the increased complexity, any organization that does not know what is required by the new form might find itself either without the information needed to complete it, or in a position where its answers might be found by potential contributors as well as the IRS itself, to have an adverse impact on the organization.

Foundation grantmaking can be tricky to predict given the variability that can occur from year-to-year in what foundations choose to support. How can you keep a grantmaker's interest? What engagement strategies can you use to nurture a healthy, transparent relationship with grantmakers beyond satisfying the grant requirements? Join us for a presentation and conversation about the importance of recipient engagement, perspectives from both the "fundraiser" and "grantmaker," and the ways you can avoid the pitfalls of a one-time-funded relationship.

For many years, grantmakers have chosen to support projects and programs with measurable outcomes, leaving nonprofits with the challenge of finding other sources of funds for business operations and growth. Many grantmakers are now realizing that this concentration on programs has prevented nonprofits from being health, growing businesses. The grantmakers response is the "capacity building" grant.

Logic models can be intimidating, confusing and frustrating for grantwriters and program staff alike. They are often seen as just another hoop to jump through in the funding process. However, a well-constructed logic model can be extremely useful—internally as well as externally. In this class, participants will receive basic instruction in how to read and construct a logic model. They will also learn how using one can help in program planning and evaluation, as well as in communicating program impact to potential funders and other stakeholders. Participants will leave the webinar ready to make logic models work for them and to “sell” the benefits to colleagues. More Info |

Grant reviewing is sometimes thought of as a mystical process that involves the reviewer holding your grant application against his or her forehead, closing their eyes and saying “Feels fundable to me.” You write what you believe is a Grade A grant application only to have it picked apart at best and at worse, receive no comments at all, other than a one sentence letter telling you it wasn’t funded. These were the experiences that drove me to enter the world of grant reviewing. Four years and countless reviewed grant applications later the mystery has been solved for me. More Info |

As grants professionals we have a job that we do very well: obtaining and administering grants. We also have valuable knowledge and skills we can contribute to program planning. But the "grantwriter's conundrum" is how to balance these demands. On the one hand, we wish to avoid becoming a program manager or doing our co-workers’ job for them. On the other hand, we want to ensure that the program is fundable. More Info |
