An Open Letter to Community Foundations from a Concerned Executive Director ([link removed])

A nonprofit executive director calls on foundations to step up, cut red tape, loose resources, and enable nonprofits to meet the needs of the moment.

I just got off a heartbreaking call with a fellow nonprofit executive director. It was the third such call today. She’s reached her limit. Relying on antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications, she’s losing her grip and her connection to the community she loves and serves. She is among an alarming number of nonprofit leaders who are on the brink. All while our nation is on the edge of civil unrest and facing threats of civil war from far-right extremists. Oh—and then there’s the pandemic.
