Testing the Feasibility of Financial Innovation to Support Every Woman Every ...EveryWomanEveryChild
The document discusses testing financial innovation models to support the mandate of Every Woman Every Child (EWEC).

The document summarizes recommendations for nonprofits during an economic recession based on a study by the Nonprofit Finance Fund of 6,500 mid-sized nonprofits during the 2001 recession. The study found that over 40% of nonprofits reported deficits from 2001-2003 as expenses grew faster than revenues. Recommendations include reviewing cash and investment risks, avoiding unsustainable spending, engaging in contingency planning, diversifying revenue sources, and asking tough questions about programs, finances, and operations.
1) Capacity building in non-profits involves investing in overhead costs like leadership development, strategic planning, and financial management in order to help an organization better fulfill its mission.
2) However, non-profits often underinvest in capacity building due to pressures from funders and the public to keep overhead costs low, despite evidence that such investments can significantly improve an organization's programs and sustainability.
3) Case studies show that foundations who provide targeted capacity building grants see impacts like improved services, strategic planning, and fundraising from beneficiary organizations. Where impacts are most generated includes areas like decision making tools, board leadership, and organizational learning.
What's in the Numbers? A workshop for mastering the power of financial toolsStrengtheningPGHArts
Presented by Kim Cook and Alice Richardson, Nonprofit Finance Fund, August 23, 2010, for the Strengthening Pittsburgh Arts Kickoff Event at Father Ryan Arts Center
Have you been asked to manage to a balance sheet? Do you wonder what it means to get “beyond break even”? Have you heard the term “below the line” and wondered what line they were referring to? Do metrics sound like a system for tabulating football scores that you didn’t learn in college? This workshop is designed to address issues for both new and experienced nonprofit managers facing increasingly challenging demands in the use of financial tools. As the economy continues to remain uncertain, many organizations are revisiting current budgeting practices and exploring new options to better navigate this changing environment. Especially valuable for managers of organizations with budgets between $200,000 and $5 million, this workshop encompasses a review of how to approach budgeting for successful annual financial management and external communications, how to use program economics as a method for making adjustments on the margin to improve overall performance, and concepts for thinking about and adjusting scenarios when operational changes occur.

SUSTAINABLE INVESTING STRATEGIES: WHY INVESTOR INTEREST CONTINUES - Michael L...IFG Network marcus evans
Michael Lent, VERIS WEALTH PARTNERS - Speaker at the 2013 IFG Wealth Management Forum held in Phoenix, AZ, April 22-23, delivered his presentation entitled SUSTAINABLE INVESTING STRATEGIES: WHY INVESTOR INTEREST CONTINUES
Vision, mission, objectives, and goals provide strategic direction for an organization. A vision describes what an organization aspires to become, while a mission outlines its current purpose. Objectives specify quantifiable targets to achieve within a set timeframe. Goals are short-term milestones that support achieving long-term objectives. Together, they guide an organization and provide a framework for evaluating performance.
This document provides a summary of the findings from an evaluation of the Sheffield Financial Capability Project. The evaluation was conducted over two phases from January 2010 to May 2011. Key findings include:
- The project successfully delivered financial capability sessions to a large number of participants by working collaboratively with partners in housing, employment, and debt/money advice services.
- Sessions were well-received by participants but it was difficult to evidence long-term impacts without longitudinal tracking of participants.
- Flexibility in session delivery and content was important to meet the needs of diverse groups.
- Partners valued the sessions and saw benefits for their clients, and financial capability is now a higher priority for many agencies.

The document discusses programmatic changes to the Community Advantage program to address initial feedback and encourage more participation. Key changes include increasing the maximum interest rate to Prime + 6%, committing over $100 million in loan capital from banks, and allowing outsourcing of lending operations. The program aims to increase access to capital for small businesses in underserved markets through SBA-authorized lenders. Over 30 lenders have already signed on since the changes were announced. Interested lenders are encouraged to re-evaluate participating given the improved terms and available support.
The Association for Enterprise Opportunity (AEO) submitted comments on the implementation of the Community Development Financial Institutions Bond Guarantee Program. AEO believes the program represents an opportunity to expand access to capital for underserved entrepreneurs. However, the design must balance expanding access while managing risks to the government. AEO recommends the program ensure an adequate risk-sharing reserve, allow flexibility for different CDFI models and loan uses, and permit CDFIs to service their own loans. The goal is to get capital to underserved communities throughout the pilot program in a sustainable way.
The Budget Control Act of 2011 increases the debt ceiling in two steps totaling $2.1-2.4 trillion while mandating $917 billion in spending cuts and establishing a bipartisan committee to find an additional $1.5 trillion in deficit reduction by 2021 through further cuts and possible tax increases. If the committee fails to agree on $1.2 trillion in savings, automatic across-the-board cuts will be triggered split between security and non-security spending. The Act passed Congress along partisan lines and was signed by President Obama.
The document outlines the key terms of the Budget Control Act of 2011, which raised the US debt ceiling. It established a bipartisan committee to cut $1.5 trillion in spending by 2021 and automatic cuts if it fails to agree. It also enacted immediate caps that cut $350 billion from defense and $917 billion total through 2021. The plan aims to match debt ceiling increases with equal spending cuts or revenue increases.

The Association for Enterprise Opportunity (AEO) strongly disagrees with suggestions to eliminate the Small Business Administration's (SBA) Program for Investment in Micro-Entrepreneurs (PRIME). PRIME provides grants to microenterprise development organizations (MDOs) to deliver counseling and technical assistance to very low-income entrepreneurs in underserved areas, which is not duplicative of other SBA programs. PRIME grants of around $90,000 on average support over 200 clients per organization. Studies show microbusinesses receiving this assistance have a 30% higher five-year survival rate. For $8 million in 2010, PRIME created or supported over 200 jobs. Eliminating PRIME would
