Funding Opportunities: Washington, D.C.. What about your community? September 2020

 

Are funding opportunities available in your community similar to those in Washington, D.C. listed below?

 

From Washington, D.C., Boston, Chicago, Atlanta, Baltimore, San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles.  Nationally within the U.S. and globally with the World Bank and others.

 

The funding environment has changed since March 2020 with the start of the COVID-19 crisis.

 

Your mission & vison for your nonprofit in the U.S.  Must have certain perimeters in place for award and success.  You cannot be a separate island in seeking your funding as in the past.  Your mission & vision and program must be enhanced with some sustainability and resiliency to meet the future demands for your community that you serve.  Addressing disasters, emergencies, and impact of climate change must be a part of your ‘enhanced’ mission & vision.

 

  • Are you a U.S. IRS 501c3 nonprofit?  Foundation?
  • Do you have a resiliency plan, or business continuity plan?
  • How have you adapted to the COVID-19 crisis, and recovery for 2020?
  • How will you adapt to the extended recovery up to 2022?
  • Are you partnered or practicing Cooperation, Collaboration, Communication, Coordination, Community engagement, and  Partnering (C5&P) with a local or national, or even an international nonprofit organization?            

 

Is your organization a member of BEMA International. This differs from your individual membership.

 

Do not consider, ADD BEMA International as your subject matter expert membership association to your grant proposal for your organization.  You’ll be surprised at the response.  Your individual membership takes on a whole new meaning when your organization becomes a member.

 

Without BEMA International.  You may be just business as usual.

“We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today.  We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now.  In this unfolding conundrum of life and history there is such a thing as being too late.  Procrastination is still the thief of time.  Life often leaves us standing bare, naked and dejected with a lost opportunity.  This may well be mankind’s last chance to choose between chaos or community.”

 

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., ‘Where Are We Going From Here:  Chaos or Community’.
