Important Testimony on Monday, April 7

Representing the collective nonprofit sector for the first time in public hearings on the '09 operating budget, Nonprofit Montgomery! is testifying before the County Council on this coming Monday night, April 7, sometime between 7:15 and 7:45 PM. The Council hearings start at 7:00 PM and we are speaker #15.

Please plan to attend the Council hearing on Monday during the time of the testimony. Having both funders and nonprofits supporting our appearance before the Council will send a very strong message. The hearings will be held in the Council Office Building, 100 Maryland Avenue, Rockville, 3rd floor Council hearing room.

On Tuesday, April 1st, The Funders' Roundtable of Montgomery County and Nonprofit Montgomery! hosted a convening of 80 nonprofit leaders. Attendees at the convening agreed unanimously that Nonprofit Montgomery! should present testimony before the County Council on the '09 budget, communicating budget concerns, such as inflationary increases, that affect the nonprofit community as a whole.
