DescEducation: MCN strives to provide educational events, networking opportunities, and publications that center equity and respond to the expressed needs, interests, and experiences of individual organizations as a means to supporting the growth, health, and future of the sector and the relationships it holds. In 2020, MCN sponsored 210 public events with over 9,000 total attendees. While some educational opportunities were held in-person across Minnesota early in the year, MCN shifted to a mostly virtual environment beginning in March 2020. Offerings included four major conferences and hundreds of paid and free events focused on a wide range of topics including financial management, equity and justice, human resources, governance, accountability, fundraising, communications, leadership and more. In 2020, MCN continued its role as a researcher and publisher, releasing the annual Minnesota Nonprofit Economy Report, national research on the nonprofit sector, 2020 Salary and Benefits Survey, and Nonprofit News, a newsletter providing information on sector trends and resources. Through all of its educational programming, MCN worked with hundreds of people from other nonprofits, capacity building groups, and government agencies to offer myriad expertise, current information, and interactive learning for Minnesota's nonprofit sector.Desc

DescResearch: With the support of charitable contributions from foundations and corporations, MCN studies nonprofit sector trends and shares this research with members, other nonprofits, decision-makers, and the media. In 2020, MCN shared information widely on Minnesota's nonprofit sector, demonstrating the economic impact of nonprofits on the state's economy. In response to COVID-19, MCN produced 3 updated Nonprofit Economy Reports in 2020. MCN also conducts nonpartisan research and analysis on tax, budget, and economic issues through the Minnesota Budget Project. The Minnesota Budget Project's analysis particularly focuses on policy choices and economic trends that impact low- and moderate-income Minnesotans and communities of color, budget and policy choices that impact access to prosperity and economic opportunity in Minnesota, the contributions of Minnesota's immigrants to the economy and local communities, and progress toward a fair and sustainable tax system. Advocacy: MCN undertakes advocacy efforts to strengthen the nonprofit sector and its ability to serve communities throughout Minnesota. MCN's major advocacy efforts in 2020 included: raising awareness of a change to MN election law and related privacy concerns; educating lawmakers at the state and federal levels about nonprofits that reimburse for unemployment benefits costs and advocating for financial relief; racial equity in state bonding, expansion of the Paycheck Protection Program, emergency funding for nonprofits due to impacts of COVID-19, and volunteer mileage reimbursement. MCN's Minnesota Budget Project identifies and advances public policies that expand economic opportunity and prosperity, especially in the areas of state tax, budget, and economic policy. The Minnesota Budget Project's 2020 advocacy priorities called for strong response at all levels of government to the pandemic and economic downturn to meet Minnesotans' health, safety, and economic needs, and build a more equitable recovery. This included advocating for new revenues needed to make those priorities happen. AmeriCorps VISTA: In 2020, MCN was awarded a grant from the Corporation for National and Community Service to sponsor 16 full time VISTA members and 10 Summer Associate VISTAs at 15 different nonprofit organizations. MCN's VISTA program builds the capacity of nonprofits serving or led by BIPOC, immigrant, and refugee communities to overcome poverty. MCN places AmeriCorps VISTA members in Minnesota nonprofits to provide the resources, capacity and connections for community based organizations to ensure operational sustainability and grow their community impact.Desc

ExplanationThe funding for the voter education grants came in very close to the election, so we connected with organizations that had received MCN's Census Outreach grants earlier in 2020 and had done great work, to see if they were interested. We sent a short application to 9 organizations, and received completed applications from 6. Applications included questions about the org's target audiences, proposed activities, partnerships, and estimated expenses. We saved all the applications as PDFs in our electronic files, and used a spreadsheet to track the grant statuses (application sent, application received, amount approved, check sent, etc). The focus of these grants was nonprofits that support people typically NOT targeted for voter outreach by other means, including BIPOC communities.ExplanationTxt
