Strategic Nonprofit Restructuring to Attain Sustainability through Difficult Times

Have you ever wondered why running a nonprofit never seems to get easier? Do you find that you keeping adding to your workload, but rarely evaluate when to discontinue projects or eliminate programs? In November at the closing luncheon for the annual Ohio Grantmakers Forum conference, many Ohio funders and a few nonprofit executives had the opportunity to hear Allen Proctor discuss thought-provoking ideas for nonprofit and foundation leaders to consider.

We wanted more people to hear him, so we collaborated with Greater Cincinnati Foundation and the Carol Ann and Ralph V. Haile, Jr./U.S. Bank Foundation to offer a program in Cincinnati on Wednesday, May 18, from 2:00-4:00 p.m. The program will provide nonprofit leaders, executives, and board members tools to use to increase sustainability.

Each participant will receive a copy of Allen Proctor's newly published Linking Mission to Money, Second Edition. This book contains practical steps and provocative advice on how to evaluate and realign spending with mission to attain stronger nonprofit finances, management, and organizational governance. Space will be limited. If you are interested in this program, you can register on our website: www.healthfoundation.org/events . The registration fee is $20, and includes afternoon refreshments and a copy of Dr. Proctor's most recent book Linking Mission to Money ($25 value).
