Under Trump, nonprofits can't afford passive investment oversight anymore
Briefly

Nonprofits are facing a significant financial crisis as the Trump administration implements cuts to federal funding, resulting in frozen contracts and rescinded grants.

According to the Urban Institute, a large majority of nonprofits relying on such funding could face serious shortfalls. The sector must transition from a reactive financial management approach to a more strategic model focused on resilience, especially in an unpredictable political and economic landscape.
