Membership Renewal Opening in June

2019-05-30T14:38:33-04:00May 30th, 2019|Member News|

Thanks to our members, Nonprofit Montgomery grew over 11% in membership from the previous year.

As we open renewal for the FY20 membership year, we’d like to take a moment to thank the more than 170 nonprofits and their leaders who have joined Nonprofit Montgomery’s alliance during FY19. With your help, we have amplified the nonprofit sector’s visibility and impact through advocacy and professional development. This year we successfully advocated for a 3% increase in nonprofit contracts in DHHS and mobilized nonprofits to testify at a hearing on changes to the County’s Community Grants process.

Because of your support, we provided over 40 programs, including FIRM, MORE, Tables for Ten, Lunch and Learns, Nonprofit Impact workshops, and a leadership series. In addition, we provided countless opportunities for networking, advocacy, and resource sharing– including our Funders Dialogue on Equity and Community Grants Dialogue.

We are proud of the mission, vision, and values that each of your respective organizations brings to the sector and we are humbled that you have entrusted us with the vital job of being the voice of Montgomery County’s nonprofit community and the community convenor in the community. We look forward to welcoming you back for another year of alliance and capacity building.

Thank you for being a Nonprofit Montgomery Member!

Community Bridges College Road Trip!

Community Bridges recently took three staff members and 10 Community Bridges girls on a Spring Break College Tour Road Trip. The road trip took place from April 15-18 with stops at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Duke University, Agnes Scott College, and Spelman College. The experience was a first of many of the CB girls. For some girls, it was the first time they’ve left the state and stayed overnight in a hotel. Several juniors from the trip have already decided to apply next year to the schools they visited.
