  • Letter from U.S
    August 5, 2020 (updated 5:00 pm) The Honorable Wilbur L. Ross The Honorable Steven Dillingham U.S. Department of Commerce Census Bureau 1401 Constitution Avenue N.W. 4600 Silver Hill Road Washington, DC 20230 Suitland, MD 20746 Re: 506 Philanthropic Leaders Say Do Not Cut the 2020 Census Short Dear Secretary Ross and Director Dillingham: We write in response to the Census Bureau’s announcement that it intends to drastically cut short 2020 Census operations and subsequent, critical data improvement, processing, and review activities. We urge the Census Bureau to maintain its constitutional responsibilities to enumerate every household that has not responded on its own, in order to achieve a fair and accurate count. Given the pandemic, there is every reason to believe the Census Bureau will need to collect data through October 31, a date the Census Bureau itself had earlier announced was needed to meet its obligations. We are leaders of nonpartisan philanthropic institutions from across the country, large and small, giving hundreds of millions of dollars each year to advance the common good and improve the quality of life in the United States. We have different funding approaches, are ideologically diverse, and do not always share the same priorities. But we have come together to support a fair and accurate 2020 Census, with a focus on historically undercounted communities, including people of color, low-income and immigrant families, and young children. We all oppose cutting short the 2020 Census in the midst of a global pandemic. Across our varied institutions, we share a belief that reliable and accurate data are a necessary foundation for a well-functioning government, robust civil society, and thriving business sector in the United States.

  • Foundation Funding Search
    PART II Foundations Funding Search Summer 2013 For Small Urban & Rural Transit Providers in Texas Introduction This search looked for foundations that give to Texas organizations that are seeking matching funds and provide service to the aging and elderly population, vocational training and education programs, and transportation. When using this instrument it is very important to use an approach of starting with those foundations with interests located closest to your targeted service area first and then moving out. It is important to find the foundations who want to fund projects that intersect best with the targeted area, clients, or services you provide. This funding research was prepared the Center for Community Support at Texas A&M University and is intended for use by the Small Urban and Rural transit providers of Texas and their not-for-profit community partners in their efforts to seek match funding opportunities. The information gather is NOT for sale and is the property of The Foundation Center as noted below. It is important to understand that this is used for educational purposes, transit providers must do personal research to insure that their organizations meet the qualifications necessary before applying to these foundations. DO YOUR RESEARCH. This funding search was completed in August 2013; it is very important to note that both private and corporate foundations are governed by a board of directors following the requests of the founders or benefactors of their funds. As communities and community needs are ever changing, boards may shift their foundations’ giving emphasis. Therefore you must always do your homework BEFORE submitting your proposal or application.

    July 21, 2021 The Honorable Joseph Biden President of the United States The White House Washington, DC 20500 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Chuck Schumer Speaker Senate Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. Senate Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20510 The Honorable Kevin McCarthy The Honorable Mitch McConnell House Minority Leader Senate Minority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. Senate Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20510 RE: 2021 COVID Relief and Charitable Nonprofits Dear President Biden, Speaker Pelosi, and Leaders Schumer, McCarthy, and McConnell: As the nation recovers from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the nonprofit sector will play a critical role in rebuilding the economy, restoring livelihoods, and strengthening communities. The undersigned charitable nonprofit organizations take this opportunity to identify the unique challenges charitable organizations continue to face and seek your support for urgently needed relief that will enable charitable organizations to contribute to our nation’s relief, recovery, and rebuilding. Charitable nonprofits have risen to the crises our nation is enduring. They have stretched beyond all reasonable measures and continue to advance their missions despite unfathomable challenges. Most charitable organizations did not shut down or sit out the pandemic. During the height of the pandemic, demand for services sky-rocketed. Many nonprofits were innovative and shifted their service models to virtual platforms and partnered with others in their community to help meet basic needs. Most recently, nonprofits have stepped up to support vaccine distribution and awareness by setting up clinics, employee incentives, and community support like transportation and childcare while people get vaccinated.
