MCF has created a new resource page with information about how foundations can plan effectively to address the current economic situation. You’ll find details from national sources about the outlook for giving, news of how individual foundations have so far announced they will react, opinion pieces about how philanthropy should respond, and links to resources for grantmakers and nonprofits. A few of the new items:
- Economic Xchange
A platform from the national Council on Foundations where members of the philanthropic sector can exchange information, dialogue, ideas and tactics around the economic crisis and its impact on philanthropy. - Focus on the Economic Crisis
Resource from the Foundation Center with interactive maps, commentary, news, research and more. - Making Informed Decisions in Uncertain Times
Report from Community Foundation Insights about how grantmakers are forecasting key indicators for the next fiscal year, setting operating budgets, changing their grantmaking approaches, and communicating with stakeholders. - More resources
