This is a challenging time for grantees and the entire nonprofit sector as we navigate recent executive orders that may impact funding and support for organizations serving diverse communities. While the times are uncertain, the Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro remains steadfast in our commitment to bold leadership that creates meaningful opportunities for all, our partnerships with grantees to address societal challenges, and the inarguable fact that the diversity of Greensboro is one of our greatest strengths.
Your organization’s efforts to build a more inclusive, equitable, and vibrant Greensboro are essential. We also recognize that the executive orders and memos released recently may have a direct impact on your programs, your funding, and/or the work of your partners.
We’re here to help you navigate these uncertain times and want to offer a few resources that you can use immediately:
- Our partners at the Guilford Nonprofit Consortium offers classes, resources, coaching, and connections to help nonprofit organizations achieve their mission.
- The North Carolina Center for Nonprofits has a webpage with information about the federal grant pause.
- The North Carolina Center for Nonprofits is hosting a free Public Policy Preview webinar on Monday February 3rd from 10:00-11:30 am so nonprofit organizations have a better understanding of what’s ahead.
- The National Council of Nonprofits has a webpage outlining the impact of the recent executive orders on nonprofits so you can stay up-to-date on changes.
- Document from Politico which lists programs that could be impacted by a federal grant pause. (Note: The pause is on hold for right now as the result of a lawsuit filed late Tuesday.)
We are grateful for everything you do to make Greensboro stronger. Your commitment to this community, especially during challenging times, does not go unnoticed. As we move forward, together, we continue to look for ways to be good partners to your organization given the shifting environment.
