 What Grant Makers Are Saying
AGM is listening to you! As part of our mission to support responsible and effective philanthropy, AGM is hosting a series of convenings and discussion opportunities for our grant making Members and nonprofit Partners to talk about the impact of the economic downturn on the nonprofit sector, and what innovative approaches and resources are available to support the work of the charitable sector. Summaries of key themes and ideas that emerge from these discussions will continually be posted online.

The Economic Crisis – Centralized Information Resources for Funders and Nonprofits
Massachusetts to cut $700 million from State Budget. Turbulent Waters. Uncertainty Looms for the Nonprofit Sector. A Rollercoaster. Pick your headline, pick your metaphor, no matter where you look these days, it is clear that the philanthropic and nonprofit sectors are facing both greater uncertainty and greater demand for services than we have for a very long time. As the leading organization for funders and nonprofits in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, AGM remains committed to providing you with key policy and news developments, and also provide links to resources and innovative ideas for both funders and nonprofits.
