Financial Strategy in Response to the COVID-19 Crisis – Session 1

The current public health crisis has disrupted many non-profits’ operations and funding sources, with longer-term impacts that remain unknown. Organizations face immediate budget impacts and potential threats to sustainability. In this series of two 90-minute webinars we will help non-profit leaders visualize and chart a financial strategy to proactively address the short- and longer-term impacts of the crisis. At the conclusion of the series, participants will have a conceptual framework to pave a pathway toward financial sustainability amid uncertainty. This is session 1, Stop the Financial Bleeding and Define a Process, of the two-part webinar series.
