Baltimore City depends on nonprofits to provide services, particularly in Black and low-income communities. A reliable contract with the city can allow a nonprofit to expand, serve more residents, and build the employment base of the city. However, longstanding delays in contracting and payment of city partners leave some nonprofits asking if the barriers to accessing city funding are worth the effort. This Abell Report asks what causes the delays in the City's contracting process with nonprofits and how can those delays be fixed?
In 2018, the Weinberg Foundation launched the Baltimore City Community Grants program, a unique funding opportunity exclusively for small grassroots nonprofits.
Presented by a program officer who reviews hundreds of proposals each year, the Maryland Philanthropy Network invites new grant proposal writers to a step-by-step presentation to writing a full proposal grantmakers will want to receive. You will hear the “never ever do this” and the “be sure to do that”. This is a great workshop for grantseekers new to the field. The agenda includes additional information on preparing to write, stewarding a funder relationship, and presenting your budget.
Based on the resources available at www.marylandphilanthropy.org/grantwriting and current insights from local foundation program officers.

A message to the Maryland Philanthropy Network membership from our President and CEO Danista E. Hunte.
As the coronavirus pandemic continues to worsen, many foundations are learning that speed is of the essence.
It’s been some time since nonprofits have had something to cheer about. They have been hit hard by proverbial one-two punches.
This past September, the Trump Administration announced the termination of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, with all benefits to be revoked by March 2018.
The decision to spend down all the assets of the S. D. Bechtel, Jr. Foundation was made in 2008, creating significant opportunities as well as some real challenges.
We are thrilled to announce that the PEAK Grantmaking Board of Directors has hired Satonya Fair to be the first President and CEO of PEAK Grantmaking.
This is a time of change for philanthropy, especially related to how we deploy our resources to best meet urgent and emergent needs of our communities.
