Grants Cafe: Grantseekers’ Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic

Last month, a panel of funders discussed how their foundations are supporting their grantees and/or developing new funding opportunities in the wake of the pandemic’s impact on nonprofits and the people we serve. This month a panel of your peers will discuss how they and their organizations are responding. We don’t promise answers – we’re all just trying to figure this out as we move forward. But the panel will share their experience with what seems to be working (and maybe what isn’t). We plan to have ample time for session participants to share what they are learning, too.

Panelists include:
* Chris Crytzer, CFRE, Principal, Crytzer Communication
* Melissa Firman, Manager, Foundation & Government Grants; Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh
* Sidney Kushner, Executive Director, Connecting Champions
* Amy O Neill, Development Director, Friends of the Riverfront and Allegheny CleanWays
*David Tinker, CFRE, FAFP, Vice President of Advancement, Achieva

This session will be conducted via Zoom. To increase security, the link to the session is not being posted now, but will be emailed the day before the session. So be sure to sign up, so that you get the email. If you have any questions or don’t receive the Zoom link on May 26th, please email Laurie directly at [masked].

The session will be recorded.
