BACKGROUND

The Nonprofit Coordinating Committee of New York, Inc., (NPCC) is the voice and information source for New York nonprofits. NPCC is an umbrella organization representing and serving some 1,500 member nonprofit 501(c)(3) organizations throughout New York City, Long Island and Westchester. As the largest such organization in our area, we represent all types of nonprofits on sector-wide issues. Established in 1984, NPCC informs and connects nonprofit leaders, saves nonprofits money, helps them manage and govern themselves better, and protects and strengthens the nonprofit community’s relations with government. NPCC serves nonprofits in three basic ways: We strengthen nonprofits by educating nonprofit leaders about

key management and governance practices through our monthly newsletter, New York Nonprofits, 50 free workshops a year, a widely used website, www.npccny.org, timely responses to email and telephone inquiries, and topical publications on key nonprofit management and governance issues;

We protect and defend all nonprofits by working to assure positive relations with all levels of government while promoting good governance, accountability and effectiveness by nonprofits themselves; and,

We save member nonprofits money through a portfolio of cost-saving programs, including such organizational basics as liability insurance, office supplies, nonprofit publications, a retirement plan, payroll services and other administrative needs.

PROGRAM ACTIVITIES

Fiscal Year 2012 (October 1, 2011—September 30, 2012) In the past year, with the continuing fiscal downturn, we strove to ensure that our information and support services would sustain the New York City area’s nonprofit community in the face of generally rising needs and decreased funding. Despite the economy, we also continued efforts to expand our membership, especially in New York City boroughs outside Manhattan and in Nassau, Suffolk, and Westchester Counties, in order to better represent the demographics of our whole region.

Increasing Information and Guidance NPCC’s work to keep New York nonprofits informed and to connect them with valuable resources is rated by our members as our most valuable service, directly related to our high level of membership retention. This work continued to be a major and expanding focus for NPCC’s modest complement of six full-time staff and three consultants. Our Fiscal Year 2012 accomplishments included:

Conducting the Sixth Annual Nonprofit Excellence Awards: The 2012 New York Community Trust-New York Magazine Nonprofit Excellence Awards represented the sixth cycle of this widely influential educational program, conducted in collaboration with The New York Community Trust and Philanthropy New York and sponsored by New York Magazine and WNYC. The program aims: (1) to educate, encourage and support participating nonprofit managers and board leaders in implementing excellent management strategies and in tracking resulting organizational improvements; and, (2) to raise public awareness of excellently managed nonprofit organizations.

The Awards program urges participating nonprofits to involve their staff, board, volunteers and other stakeholders in reviewing and reporting their organizations’ management strategies. Application questions are centered around Seven Areas of Nonprofit Excellence, a summary of which can be found at http://npexcellence.fcny.org/npea/excellence. In April, 2012, NPCC conducted seven Application Clinics to kick off the program’s sixth year throughout the five boroughs, Long Island and Westchester. These Clinics gave organizations that were seriously considering applying for the 2012 Awards a chance to ask questions and get more detailed information about the application and selection processes. The Clinics were attended by 144 nonprofit professionals representing 128 unique New York City area nonprofits. We subsequently received 50 qualified Part One applications from nonprofit organizations representing a broad cross-section of the nonprofit sector in the New York City area. These applications were reviewed by a 28-member expert Selection Committee, carefully chosen for their deep and broad knowledge and experience in the seven key areas of nonprofit management. Applicants, upon request, received telephone and written feedback about their applications’ strengths and weaknesses, based on detailed scoring by Selection Committee members. In the 2012 Awards year, we completed feedback calls with 26 of these applicants, providing each with detailed information about management strengths and areas needing improvement. Review of Part One applications yielded 10 semifinalist organizations, which were then asked to submit Part Two applications. Review of subsequent Part Two applications resulted in six finalists, all of which participated in a final round of site visits, where Selection Committee members followed presentations by the finalists and then asked a wide range of questions. Following the site visits, the Selection Committee identified three winning organizations – Red Hook Initiative (Brooklyn), Harlem RBI (Manhattan) and Open Door Family Medical Center (Westchester). The winners were announced at a special Best Practices Workshop and Awards Ceremony on November 15, 2012 at the Citi headquarters.

The Best Practices Workshop consisted of presentations by the three winning organizations, each represented by its executive director and board chair, in a dialogue format moderated by Charles Herman, Business and Economics Editor at WNYC. Winners highlighted their management strengths and detailed the strategies and practices that led to their selection. The event was attended by 291 nonprofit managers, board leaders, grantmakers and others. A total of $40,000 was awarded to winning organizations, with $25,000 going to the Gold Prize winner for Overall Management Excellence, $10,000 to the Silver Prize winner, and $5,000 to the Bronze Prize winner. Winning organizations were featured in advertising in New York Magazine and WNYC, as well as a wide range of community and citywide media and social media. The Programs in Social Enterprise in Executive Education at Columbia Business School again provided scholarships toward tuition for its Senior Leaders and Developing Leaders Programs for Nonprofit Professionals. Five nonprofit leaders from the winning organizations enrolled in these programs, which are currently underway. Two more leaders opted to defer their participation until 2014. Red Hook Initiative was named the Gold Prize Winner for Overall Management Excellence and received $25,000. It partners with community adults to nurture young people in Red Hook, Brooklyn to be inspired, resilient and healthy and to envision themselves as co-creators of their lives, community and society. Harlem RBI was named the Silver Prize Winner for Management Excellence and received $10,000. It uses the power of teams to coach, teach and inspire inner-city youth to recognize their potential and realize their dreams. In 2008, Harlem RBI won the prize for Excellence in Communications. Open Door Family Medical Center was named the Bronze Prize Winner for Management Excellence and received $5,000. It is based in Westchester and provides quality primary health care and human services at affordable prices to the community, particularly low-income, under-served residents and those otherwise lacking access to health care. Open Door is the first Westchester winner in the six-year history of the Awards. NPCC conducts the Nonprofit Excellence Awards program primarily for its educational value for nonprofit managers and board members. The program is therefore committed to tracking its impact on improved management practices by participating organizations. To date, the 2012 Awards program has served a total of 451 unique organizations (applicants as well

as participants in Application Clinics and Pathways to Excellence workshops). These nonprofits have already reported making 432 organizational improvements as a result of their participation in the program. Capping off the 2012 Awards, NPCC conducted a series of seven Pathways to Excellence workshops in January and February, 2013, throughout the city’s five boroughs, Long Island and Westchester, to disseminate best practices and management lessons from the program’s first six years. In preparation for these workshops, we developed guidance materials for each, including a compilation of specific best practices from the 20 winning organizations over these years. The workshops inform participating nonprofit leaders about strategies that work to achieve management excellence. Each Pathways workshop was based on one of the Seven Areas of Nonprofit Excellence and showcased two past winning organizations plus a member of the 2012 Awards Selection Committee as moderator. Workshop materials will be posted online at http://npexcellence.fcny.org/npea/workshops, making them available to those unable to attend. Our experience with and reflection on the Awards program continues to be very heartening. Evidence shows that the application process itself is a useful tool that enables participating organizations to improve their management practices. Some 98% (40 of 41) of applicants for the 2012 Awards responding to our post-application survey found the application helpful in managing their organizations. For many organizations, participating in the Awards program is the first time that they have undertaken such an intense, 360-degree review of their management practices. Participating organizations undertaking the application process tell us that the questions posed and the subsequent feedback based on Selection Committee scoring help to shape their organizational strategic plans, modify communication strategies, re-engineer stakeholder engagement, improve program performance, and often lead to increased funding. Examples: “Our organization has been able to better streamline our goals and objectives, which led us to better reporting and communication, greater feedback from our Board, partners, and constituents, and greater clarity in fundraising.” “The application helped us focus on areas in need of improvement. Our organization took a renewed and closer look at our policies and practices around diversity and fundraising. The application process brought about new conversations across different staff and departments related to our management performance in multiple areas. The application allowed us to weave all of this information together in one place, and ultimately tell and understand the ‘story’ of our management approach in a new way.” “The application process clarified good management and improvements as

suggested through the questions. We improved communications between the fundraising team and the programs it supports. This improvement extended to better tracking of results. We also improved our Board governance practices, which resulted in better oversight and evaluation.” “We reviewed the Seven Areas of Nonprofit Excellence with key board members. We evaluated our fiscal management capability and added new staff to support our current structure. We also enhanced our IT related to volunteer and client data systems. In addition, we initiated a process to increase fundraising capabilities.” “The application helped us think about ways to better implement best practices across the board, such as in IT management. We have started our first strategic plan and these are strategies we are addressing specifically.” At the 2012 Best Practices Workshop, 94% (83) of attendees completing evaluations reported learning something new, and 88% (77) reported that they would use what they learned in the workshop to improve their organizations. Examples: “We will develop social media strategies to further our organization’s reach and promote our mission.” “We will implement board evaluations, using the scorecard method, and provide written weekly updates to the board.” “We will try to reduce our employee turnover by providing remedial resources that staff can use to improve their performance.”

Continuing the Nonprofit Outsourcing Clearinghouse

(NOC) program: The Nonprofit Outsourcing Clearinghouse (NOC) program helps nonprofits reduce administrative costs, increase productivity, and improve operational quality through outsourcing key back-office services. This program was launched in February, 2011, to help 50 nonprofit organizations assess their suitability for outsourcing one or more back-office services, help them contract with one or more outsourced service providers as appropriate, and track their results. To date, the outsourcing assessment process has been completed, and NPCC has sent written assessments of outsourcing potential and capacity to all participating organizations.

A key component of NOC is a hands-on consulting program for organizations that request in-depth consultations on their back-office functions, and is available at a reduced fee for NPCC members. The program makes it easier for these nonprofits to decide whether to outsource one or more administrative services and helps them choose the right service providers. Of the 50 participating organizations, 22 have already contracted with outsourced service providers. Participating organizations note that the NOC program has made it easier to decide whether to outsource one or more of

their administrative services and, if so, to choose the right service provider. They also report that NOC enabled them to better organize and manage their back-office operations. To date, NPCC has six months of results for nine groups. Two of these organizations, with budgets less than $500,000, each raised an additional $40,000. One witnessed a 65% increase in board contributions based on a board member’s enthusiasm for the outsourcing assessment process and subsequent decisions. By outsourcing its HR function, another group reported a 94% decline in time spent on HR tasks. In addition, the policies and procedures implemented with the assistance of the outsourcing provider mitigated several legal risks. NPCC developed a dedicated website for the NOC vendor database, https://noc.npccny.org/noc, including providers in eight areas of back-office services: Information Technology, Bookkeeping and Financial Management, Marketing and Communications, Fundraising, Purchasing, Risk Management, Legal Services and Human Resources.

Increasing information and advice to nonprofits: NPCC

staff provided an increased volume of guidance and referrals in Fiscal Year 2012 in terms of time devoted to information, telephone calls, emails and in-person requests. We use an annual survey to track the results of our work for member organizations; results from the fall 2012 member survey for the past fiscal year reveal that 67% of organizations using our Information and Referral services rated them “very good” or “excellent.”

Maintaining circulation of NPCC’s newsletter, New York

Nonprofits: Newsletter circulation was just over 3,800 mailed print copies per month. We also sent newsletter eblasts to an average of 5,500 individuals each month, with an average of 1,125 page views per month.

Offering 50 free workshops: Free to members and providing

expertise and information that benefit a wide range of nonprofits, 50 workshops were offered through September 30, 2012. We regularly updated and added topics and evaluated member interest in future topics as well as workshop results. Topics dealt with a wide range of management issues, such as: Personnel Practices Updates; Introduction to Google Tools; Social Media Marketing; Maximizing Individual Giving; Managing Conflict for Success; Financial Managers Workshop; Governance Updates; and, Mission-Driven Business Planning.

Attendance at these workshops remained high, with most “sold out.” Total attendance for all 50 workshops was 2,125.

Helping nonprofits secure more than $12.7 million in government grants by using NPCC’s Government Grants Information Service (GGIS): This NPCC web-based funding alert system (http://npccny.org/grants.htm) enables nonprofit members to receive customized email notices of federal, New York City, and New York State funding opportunities targeted to their organizations’ interests. Notices include critical funding details covering 67 different topic areas, expediting the process of identifying grant opportunities in time to meet deadlines. In 2012, subscriptions to our Government Grants Information Service reached 950. Results from the fall 2012 member survey for the past fiscal year indicate that 60% of organizations using this service rated it as “very good” or “excellent”, and 32% rated it as “good.”

Updating “Who Does What?”: NPCC continued to regularly

update our online interactive database of nonprofit technical assistance providers serving New York nonprofits (http://www.npccny-whodoeswhat.org).

Expanding use of www.npccny.org: NPCC’s website again

provided online access to our newsletter, the NPCC Member Directory, an Information Databank covering over 220 topics, and popular NPCC resources and publications, such as the 2012 Employee Benefits Survey, How to Read the New IRS Form 990, Salary Survey, Emergency Preparedness Guide, and more. NPCC’s website received an average of 18,532 unique visitors per month during Fiscal Year 2012 (an increase from an average of 15,182 per month in Fiscal Year 2011).

In August, 2012, NPCC completed a new Employee Benefits

Survey, which elicited responses from some 260 members on the range of benefits offered to their employees. Survey results were published in October, 2012; to date, the online version of the survey has been downloaded by 260 individuals. Results of the survey are available to members at www.npccny.org/members_only/2012BenefitsSurvey.pdf.

Increasing Recruitment and Retention of Members

Nonprofit membership was 1,497 at the outset of the fiscal year, increasing slightly to 1,500 by the end of the fiscal year. As seen in recent years, many nonprofits continued to face a tough economic climate and were forced to cut discretionary costs including memberships like NPCC’s. In response, we increasingly reminded nonprofits of our wide-ranging membership benefits, demonstrating how NPCC’s discount

services alone can save members more than the cost of annual membership dues. For example, our members saved a total of over two million dollars using our cost-saving vendor programs for basic business expenses such as liability insurance and office supplies. This in turn allowed NPCC members to focus scarce money and resources on their program work rather than back-office expenses. In addition, NPCC’s information services, guidance, workshops and hands-on help provided members with the technical assistance and resources they needed to effectively pursue their missions and maximize the impact of their services. In 2012, we also increased our communication with new members and hosted a New Member Reception to introduce organizations to the programs and services listed above. By replicating these receptions throughout the year, we intend that new members will become more familiar with NPCC programs, better utilize our services, and as a result, renew their memberships. NPCC also worked to sustain high renewal rates for full-paying members, which led to a four percent increase (87% to 91%) in nonprofit members’ renewal rates. NPCC regularly serves nonprofit organizations from outside Manhattan, including the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Long Island and Westchester. NPCC was delighted to partner with Citi Community Development to host a four-part workshop series on fundraising from individuals, which gave NPCC the opportunity to introduce our services to prospective member nonprofits outside of Manhattan. We look forward to strengthening this partnership in 2013, as NPCC seeks to grow and diversify membership and serve more nonprofits in the New York City area.

Expanding and Marketing Cost-Saving Member Benefits SkillsBuilders low-cost training and support program: Early

in Fiscal Year 2012, NPCC concluded the second cycle of SkillsBuilders: Basic Fundraising for Frontline Nonprofits, a small group (cohort) training program that provides support for small and midsize nonprofits and measurably improves and sustains their capacity to fundraise from individuals. This cycle of the program ran from February, 2011, through November, 2011. Of the 22 participating organizations that began the cycle, 21 remained actively engaged for the entirety of the program. All 21 groups (100%) successfully met the program’s two performance targets: (1) measurably improved fundraising results over the previous year; and, (2) measurably improved capacity to raise money in the future. As of April, 2012, participating organizations raised a total of $516,659 from individual donors. The average amount raised was $24,603 and the average percent increase from the prior year was 143%.

Continuing cost-saving group purchasing services: NPCC

offers several cost-saving vendor services that help member nonprofits focus their money and resources on their programs

Strengthening Government Relations and Promoting Effectiveness, Accountability and Transparency by Nonprofit

Organizations

NPCC conducts most of its Government Relations work under the guidance of a highly expert Government Relations (GR) Committee of leading attorneys. In Fiscal Year 2012, this committee was chaired by former New York Public Library General Counsel and NPCC Board member Robert J. Vanni, and staffed by Senior Consultant and former NPCC President, Jon Small. Small and Vanni also worked closely with government relations staff and committees of Independent Sector and the National Council of Nonprofits, and communicated when appropriate with other nonprofit umbrella and membership organizations. The purpose of our work in this area is to keep abreast of federal, New York State and New York City legislative and regulatory developments affecting, and potentially affecting, the nonprofit sector, to inform our members and other New York City area nonprofits about such developments, and to remain in communication with key regulatory

13

bodies and elected and appointed officials on these developments. In 2012, there was a virtual explosion of initiatives by federal, State and local governmental bodies seeking to change the regulatory and other arrangements whereby these levels of government relate to nonprofits. The Government Relations Committee maintained active and productive relations with a total of 16 governmental bodies (Office of Deputy Mayor Gibbs, NYC Lobbying Commission, City Campaign Finance Board, City Council, Mayor’s Office of Contract Services, Attorney General’s Charities Bureau, Governor’s Counsel’s Office, NYS Senate, NYS Assembly, Office of NYS Comptroller, Congressman Boustany, US House of Representatives, US Senate, Securities Exchange Commission), as well as nongovernmental bodies, including the NYC Bar Association and the NYS Bar Association. Issues that NPCC tracked and worked on in Fiscal Year 2012 include: Attorney General (AG) Schneiderman’s Leadership

Committee for Nonprofit Revitalization: In February, 2012, AG Schneiderman released Revitalizing Nonprofits, Renewing New York, a report based upon the findings and some 38 concrete recommendations of three working groups of a Leadership Committee convened by the AG to consider (a) reducing burdens on nonprofits; (b) modernizing and strengthening nonprofit laws; and, (c) enhancing board governance, effectiveness and recruitment. Several members of the GR Committee, as well as NPCC President Michael Clark, served on these working groups, meeting several times, and working closely with Jason Lilien, Chief of the Charities Bureau of the Office of the Attorney General, to assure that issues of particular interest to NPCC and the nonprofit sector were considered and incorporated in the findings, such as urging the creation of a Nonprofit Liaison to the Governor. The Report is robust and forward looking and will hopefully serve as a roadmap for future action by the AG.

Attorney General’s Bill, the “Non-profit Revitalization Act”

S.7431: In May, 2012, the AG’s bill, the “Non-profit Revitalization Act” was introduced into the New York State Senate by Senators Marcellino and Ranzenhofer. Based largely on the findings and recommendations in the Report discussed above, the bill would amend, conform and add to several State statutes affecting the operations of nonprofits, including the Non-Profit Corporation Law, Estates, Powers and Trusts Law, and Executive Law. Many of its elements are positive and long-awaited changes to the New York State nonprofit legal regime. As a result of ongoing discussions with the AG’s Charities Bureau, which sought our input through involving representatives of the GR Committee, NPCC and members of the AG’s Leadership Committee, the bill contains many positive elements for New York nonprofits, many of which would reduce unnecessary burdens.

Permitting certain approvals and actions by board committee;

Permitting notices, votes, etc., using electronic technology;

Enhancing the AG’s enforcement capabilities; and,

Aligning oversight of executive compensation with federal procedures.

The bill also contains a number of provisions that would be

applicable only after, as strongly recommended by NPCC and others, certain revenue thresholds have been met. These thresholds have the effect of reasonably limiting the number of New York nonprofits to which these provisions apply. These include:

Raising the gross revenue threshold triggering a required CPA’s audit from $250,000 to $500,000 and a required CPA’s review from $100,000 to $250,000;

Requiring creation of an audit committee for nonprofits with annual revenue and support of more than $500,000, i.e., those required to file a CPA’s audit report;

Requiring whistleblower policies for nonprofits that have five or more employees and in the prior fiscal year had revenues in excess of one million dollars; and,

Requiring creation of a compensation committee only for those nonprofits with annual revenues of over one million dollars and that are required to be registered with the office of the Attorney General.

Appointment of Fran Barrett as the Governor’s Interagency Coordinator for Non-profit Organizations: Following the suggestion of Michael Clark and others who served on the AG’s Leadership Committee and with the support of the AG’s report, the Governor announced the creation of a new position, Interagency Coordinator for Non-profit Organizations, and appointed Fran Barrett, a knowledgeable and experienced nonprofit administrator and long-time NPCC Board member, as its first incumbent. One of Ms. Barrett’s first actions was to accept NPCC’s invitation to address the GR Committee in May, 2012, at which she discussed the parameters of the new position, her hopes for how it would roll out over time, and in particular, how she hoped to make use of the great resources for advice and guidance represented by the members of the GR Committee as she charts a path and an agenda for this new position. She explained that her attention would be initially on contracting issues that have long been the bane of a large

portion of the nonprofit community, but made it clear that she also hoped the position would serve as a platform for the betterment of the broader environment in which nonprofits operate in New York.

Governor’s Task Force on Not-for-Profit Entities: In August, 2011, Governor Cuomo set up a task force to investigate compensation paid to senior executives of nonprofits, especially those involved with state contracts concerning the provision of health care. The task force sent letters to some 2,000 nonprofit health and human services organizations asking for voluminous amounts of compensation-related information ranging over the last five years, much of which appeared to be already publicly available. NPCC worked with selected other nonprofit umbrella organizations to develop key discussion points for a meeting with Christopher Mulvihill, Staff Director of the Task Force, in December, 2011.

In January, 2012, Governor Cuomo signed Executive Order 38, limiting State reimbursements for executive compensation by State-funded service providers (both nonprofit and for-profit) and limiting State-funded administrative costs. In February, the NYS Senate Committee on Investigations and Government Operations held a hearing on executive compensation at State-funded nonprofits, at which NPCC and other nonprofit umbrella organizations submitted joint written testimony. In May, the Governor’s office released proposed regulations on behalf of 13 New York State agencies. The proposed regulations would limit spending for administrative costs and executive compensation at State-funded nonprofit and for-profit service providers, and would cover entities that both receive more than $500,000 in State support per year and receive at least 30% of their annual funding from the State. State funding may not be used to pay more than $199,000 per year for an executive’s compensation, and the maximum amount of program administrative expenses charged to the State funding would need to decrease over three years from 25% to 15% by 2015. The regulations also provide for reporting and enforcement procedures. In July, 2012, NPCC hosted a webinar with the Governor’s Special Counsel on Public Integrity and Ethics Issues, to discuss and comment upon the draft regulations and answer member questions about Executive Order 38. A recording of the webinar is available at http://www.npccny.org/info/EO38webinar/lib/playback.html. NPCC continues to be engaged on this issue until final regulations are promulgated.

NYPMIFA: Investment management policy for small

nonprofits holding only cash and cash equivalents: The GR Committee completed and NPCC posted on its website a second draft sample policy, meant to provide guidance for those organizations that have investments but do not have endowment funds. The draft sample policies are available at www.npccny.org/databank.htm#3.

Developments regarding City Campaign Finance Board regulations concerning disclosures of advocacy on behalf of a candidate or a ballot provision: Following hearings, the City Campaign Finance Board issued final rules concerning required disclosures by entities advocating on behalf of candidates and ballot provisions. As a result of comments by NPCC and Lawyers Alliance for New York, the proposed regulations were successfully redrafted to recognize the advocacy needs of nonprofits, but recognized that under certain circumstances nonprofits may need to comply with these new disclosure rules.

New York City Lobbying Commission: A commission to

which NPCC, the Human Services Council and Lawyers Alliance for New York, have submitted comments is working on potential revisions to New York City’s law regulating lobbying.

Other issues that NPCC tracked or worked on during Fiscal Year 2012 include:

City of New York’s new group purchasing and “HHS Accelerator” initiatives;

Federal tax treatment of donors and nonprofits; and other federal developments;

Revision of New York’s Not-for-Profit Corporation Law (N-PCL);

Governor’s Spending and Government Efficiency (SAGE) Commission;

Hearing on nonprofits called by Congressman Boustany; and,

Legislation in other states. New York nonprofits, in general, operate within a favorable regulatory regime. A key role played by NPCC’s Government Relations Committee is to monitor developments and to work to head off, where possible, developments viewed as not constructive for the nonprofit sector and those it serves. Thus, in addition to working to achieve constructive developments for the sector, working to avert “bad” developments is an important aspect of this work. Two recent successes include:

Keeping retired accountants from being barred from serving on finance-related committees of nonprofit boards; and,

Keeping nonprofits from being omitted from federal tax relief provisions in the federal healthcare law that subsidize payment of health insurance premiums.

Strengthening NPCC Board and Management Capacity Enhanced NPCC organizational capacity is critical, and some progress was made in Fiscal Year 2012: Began a three-year Strategic Reforecast: NPCC began a three-

year Strategic Reforecast to guide NPCC’s work for our fiscal years 2013-2015. Nonprofit fundraising and regulatory climates are changing and NPCC revisited our efforts to ensure that our programs and services are reflective of and responsive to those changes.

Explored possible collaborations: In Fiscal Year 2012, NPCC

began exploring possible collaborations with other capacity building organizations. NPCC is pursuing improved referrals to other capacity building providers, and greater attention to results of capacity building.

Increased individual fundraising: To help meet growing

demands for our services, NPCC is continuing a campaign to increase support from individual donors by cultivating support from those who care about NPCC’s programs and our impact in New York’s nonprofit community. NPCC’s Sustainers Circle is open to those who can donate at the $1,000 level or above. Sustainers will receive some NPCC membership privileges, engage with our staff and learn more about our work during the year, and will help to grow the circle. In September, 2012, NPCC board members and supporters came together for a “friendraising” reception to celebrate our activities during the past year, to update supporters on our work, and to communicate to potential donors how NPCC protects and serves New York’s nonprofits. Through this event, we identified additional prospective Individual Sustainers to join our current circle of 15 Sustainers.

Strengthened Board capacity: We continue to pursue our goal

of building a board that is more representative of the New York City nonprofit sector and better able to leverage resources. In Fiscal Year 2012 we recruited seven new board members.

Strengthened staff capacity: Current staffing consists of six

full-time staff and three consultants. (See summary on page 18.) Monitored our organizational capacity and performance:

NPCC maintains an organizational scorecard, based on the Balanced Scorecard method of tracking organizational performance. This allows NPCC to set annual performance targets and milestones, and visually demonstrates the impact of our work for our members and other nonprofits. It also helps clarify our value to supporters and stakeholders. The NPCC 2012 Scorecard is found at the end of this report.

Our Mission The Nonprofit Coordinating Committee of New York serves as the voice and information source for the New York City area nonprofit community, so that nonprofits are better informed, managed, governed and represented at all levels of government, and better equipped to achieve their missions.

Our Vision The quality of life for all New Yorkers depends on a strong, vibrant and diverse nonprofit sector. Nonprofits must manage and govern themselves well, be accountable and transparent to donors, constituents and the public, and pursue their missions effectively. As NPCC’s influence and membership grow, so does our ability to help member nonprofits achieve these objectives. NPCC’s goal is to be New York nonprofits’ most reliable source for information, advice, quality programs and services, their most effective advocate on sector-wide issues, and widely recognized as such.
