(NEW) ------------------------------------------------------------------ **************** FUND INFORMATION ****************** ACCESSION NO: S 13999-006 FUND TITLE: Meyer Nonprofit Sector Advancement Fund: The Meyer Management Assistance Program (MAP). DESCRIPTION: The Eugene and Agnes E. Meyer Foundation created the Meyer Nonprofit Sector Advancement Fund to celebrate the achievements of the Washington area's nonprofit sector. The Management Assistance Program, one component of the Fund, has two objectives: first, to assist individual Meyer grantees in successfully addressing some of their most vexing management issues; and second, to strengthen the capacity of the nonprofit sector as a whole to deal with these issues. Support will be provided via: 1) grants to agencies to improve and strengthen their management capacity; and 2) supporting professional exchanges to assist in advancing management effectiveness in the nonprofit sector as a whole. Initially, the Program will focus on three core issues: organizational assessment; governance; and financial management. The foundation will consider MAP projects that demonstrate: 1) board and staff consensus that management assistance is needed; 2) shared understanding of expected outcomes and a vision of how the organization will be different after the intervention; 3) evidence that the management assistance will contribute to long-term organizational change; and 4) readiness of the agency to implement the results of the management assistance.

DESCRIPTION: The Eugene & Agnes E. Meyer Foundation created the Meyer Nonprofit Sector Advancement Fund to help the Washington area's nonprofit organizations pay their bills, raise their profiles and provide better service to the needy. The Meyer Cash Flow Loan Program, one component of the Fund, is a revolving loan pool available to nonprofits for small, short-term, easy-to-obtain cash flow loans at no interest and a minimal service charge to cover periods of payment delay on approved government contracts and foundation or corporate grants. Potential loan recipients must have: 1) a track record of achieving their objectives and meeting both programmatic and financial obligations; 2) a demonstrated need for loan monies; and 3) an approved grant or contract with specified receivables. Loan fund experience will be used to facilitate a series of exchanges among local nonprofits on contracting, cash flow, and borrowing issues and how they might be addressed productively in order to strengthen both individual nonprofits and the nonprofit sector as a whole. Loans will be made on a first-come, first-served basis. Loan recipients who have honored the terms of the loan agreement may return to the loan fund for additional loans. Meyer intends to seek multiple funding partners once the program is operational and early experience has been evaluated, created an expanding loan pool and possibly, in the future, a variety of types of low-cost loans for the nonprofit sector.
