A funding cut shouldn’t be the first time leadership asks, “What happens if this revenue disappears?” For nonprofit Boards and executive teams, funding resiliency starts with understanding where the organization is vulnerable before something changes. Four questions worth asking now: 1️⃣ Which funding sources would hurt us most if they disappeared tomorrow? 2️⃣ How much of our revenue is restricted—and how much flexibility do we actually have? 3️⃣ How long could we continue operating if a major funding source were delayed or reduced? 4️⃣ Do we know which programs, expenses and commitments we would protect first? You don’t need to predict the next funding shift. But you should know how your organization would respond to one. That’s the difference between reacting to a funding crisis and being prepared for it. #nonprofit #nonprofitleadership #nonprofitfinance #boardleadership #teamcarey

Funding resilience isn’t built after the cut lands. It’s built before. In her latest article, Carmen Gandulla, a Carey & Co COO, shares a different way for nonprofit leaders to think about funding—one that starts with mission and connects the dollars to partnerships, community impact and operational strategy. Her framework centers on five C’s: Collective. Coalition. Community. Constituent. Coins. Together, they challenge organizations to look beyond the next grant and ask a bigger question: Are we building an organization that can sustain the work when funding changes? 📖 Read Carmen’s full article to explore the Funding Resilience Playbook. 🎙️ And stay tuned! Carmen will be joining us on the Carey & Co. podcast to dig deeper into the experiences and lessons behind the framework. #nonprofit #nonprofitleadership #nonprofitfundraising #fundraisingstrategy #teamcarey
