Nonprofits Talking Taxes: The Webinar!

Nonprofits are continually being asked to do more with less, and fundraising gets harder every year. But it’s not just a fundraising problem. It’s a larger symptom of California’s revenue and spending priorities. Nonprofits are a huge part of California’s economy in addition to being the main social safety net, the main source of education, art and culture, and environmental protection and preservation.Tax cuts have really affected our ability to do our job and they’re impacting the communities we serve. We need to speak up. To do that, we need to understand California’s tax and budget structure and the various reforms that are being proposed to fix it. By working cross-sector instead of issue by issue, we can exercise our aggregate clout with lawmakers and at the ballot box to create a state which reflects the values of the common good. Whether you receive government funding or not, this is one of the most important issues of our time and it’s time to start talking about taxes. Join fundraising consultant and BMP Project Team Member Kim Klein to learn about the budget crisis, how it affects your nonprofit’s mission and fundraising, and build your skills so we can work together to do something about it.
