Massachusetts Nonprofit Network to Help Nonprofits Seeking Stimulus Aid

April 9, 2009 — The Massachusetts Nonprofit Network, the state trade association, recently received a $25,000 grant from The Boston Foundation to help ensure that the nonprofit sector “is appropriately considered” with regard to disbursements from the recently funded federal stimulus package.

“While we already do much to affect public policy in areas such as health care and lobbying options,” said Dave Magnani, executive director of the Massachusetts Nonprofit Network (MNN). “The scale and unique aspects of current economic pressures require that we respond immediately and aggressively.”
