You might not know that the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 -- also known as President Obama's economic stimulus package -- includes funding opportunities for nonprofit organizations in the USA. And that means every nonprofit organization needs to learn more about it and how best to take advantage of it.

Don Griesmann has prepared a very helpful blog entry that offers action steps your nonprofit can start right now to help staff decide whether or not to prepare to go through proposal preparation or not. The clock is ticking! Don's outline is based on what is known now about the funding, as well as some educated guesses and probabilities. Whether you agree or disagree with the Recovery Act, it may have many consequences for your nonprofit organization, intended and unintended, immediate and long-term. Read Don's blog and consider his analysis.
