Stephanie Strom’s take on Nonprofits

Remember last week when I was all “Save the Nonprofits!” Well, turns out I didn’t even know the whole story.

We’re more screwed than I knew!
Here’s more.

Nonprofit Quarterly reports on the Michigan State Charitable deduction going away.

Tony Martignetti just told me about Stephanie Strom, who is the reporter on Philanthropy for the New York Times.

Hawaii tried to levy a 1% tax on nonprofits in 2010 and failed, but now

California is trying to get more property taxes from nonprofits. And they are, in fact, succeeding.

Do you work at a nonprofit hospital?
The IRS MIGHT look into how much charity you actually do a bit more closely.

Also, nonprofit management wonks, philanthropists are now requiring management courses before they give money to nonprofits.

So if you’ve ever had a bad boss at a nonprofit, or wished there were an HR person, this just might be the trend that helps you get through that next day!

Philanthropists start requiring MANAGEMENT courses to keep nonprofits productive.

Actually this is the one bright spot in all of the research I’ve done today.
