ADVOCACY
More than 1.5 million nonprofit organizations are registered in the U.S. The government provides $100 million in funding to organizations each year. State government allocates funding for specific nonprofits through budget legislation for capital and operating expenses. You can start advocating for funding by following some key tips.
TIPS
- Assess your funding needs and/or policies that need to be changed
- Develop your message
- Engage your team – staff, board, donors, supporters, consumers…the community you serve
- Get to know your legislators by inviting them to tour your nonprofit and see the services you provide their constituents
- Understand the process for enacting budgets and policies, and time your advocacy efforts accordingly
- Develop relationships with government agency program managers
- Track government funding opportunities and policy decision-making throughout the year to execute a strategic plan for engagement
G2G can offer tailored webinars and seminars for your nonprofit to inform on funding, policy and advocacy opportunities for your organization. Contact lpowell@G2Gconsulting.com to arrange one for your organization or conference.
