You’ve likely seen the news about the new federal stimulus package – the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) (S. 748) – but may still be asking yourself, what does it mean for my organization? For us, the message is clear: as this crisis unfolds, it is essential that nonprofits develop well-defined, actionable plans that plug into these benefits. Remaining focused on your mission, tapping into the resources available to you and infusing creativity in your communications, donor engagement and fundraising strategies will be essential to your success – during this time of crisis and when we all come out of this, together.
