First Nonprofit Group (FNG) will be an exhibitor at the 2015 Alliance for Nevada Nonprofits’ (ANN) Regional Conference for Nonprofits in Las Vegas this spring. The conference is a two day affair from March 12-13 at The Center, where First Nonprofit will have a booth available both days to share its valuable information about alternative state unemployment insurance options.
ANN is an association whose mission is to improve and strengthen the communities in Nevada by providing support and resources to their nonprofit organization members within the state. First Nonprofit and ANN partnered back in 2013 to help nonprofits save money on their unemployment costs and put back any savings toward their missions.
This year’s ANN conference is unique because it has two track options for attendees. The first track is geared toward new nonprofit organizations, focusing on the “nuts ‘n bolts” for nonprofit foundation and success. The second option will attract older, more experienced nonprofit organizations to share new innovations to help continue success in the future.
No matter how many years it has been since your organization was established, attendees from all nonprofits can learn extensively about how to save on state unemployment insurance in Nevada by stopping by the First Nonprofit booth. Beth Quynh, the FNG Regional Salesperson for the region, will be on site to answer any and every question nonprofits may have about the programs offered by FNG. First Nonprofit’s unemployment programs have typically saved their Nevada nonprofit clients 40-60% off their unemployment tax costs. The services offered by FNG ensure that organizations have the funds on hand to compensate unemployment claims, while also freeing up money to be used in other areas of operations.

We’ve been a member of First Nonprofit’s Unemployment Savings Program since 2011 and highly recommend joining. The program is terrific and allows us to earn interest on our own funds while still meeting the state’s requirements on unemployment payments. In addition, the staff are great and always helpful sorting out any questions we may have. Thank you all!
CCSCT was approached by First NonProfit to discuss its Unemployment Savings Program and ways the program could significantly reduce the amount of unemployment taxes we were paying. At the time, our agency was paying approximately $80,000 per year. First NonProfit conducted an analysis to determine if making the switch would be in our best interest, and it clearly was based on our circumstances. The first year on the program, CCSCT saw a 70% reduction in its unemployment costs and each year, continues to experience further reductions as a result of having minimal claims. Some additional benefits of the program including having a fixed annual cost, an interest-baring reserve account, professional unemployment claims management and representation at all unemployment hearings. This has been one of the best decisions we have made.
We first started using First Nonprofit’s Unemployment Savings Program when we were a small startup nonprofit. We didn’t have an HR department and needed expertise in the event that an unemployment claim was made. We knew we were eligible to be a reimbursing employer, but weren’t sure how to navigate that process. They made it easy to set things up, plan for, and then manage claims when they came at a very reasonable cost. The amount of time and stress they’ve saved us dealing with all this has been worth way more than the cost. We’ve now grown to a large nonprofit and do have an HR department but have no plans to stop using their services. I highly recommend them to every nonprofit I come into contact with!
Throughout our membership in the Unemployment Savings Program, First Nonprofit understood our demands, community dynamics, and the importance of seamless services; that allowed us to serve our constituents better.
Because INCS advocates for the operating conditions that allow charter public schools to provide high quality public education, partnering with First Nonprofit was an easy decision. First Nonprofit’s unemployment programs provide our member schools two operating elements crucial to their ability to provide high quality public education: savings and budget certainty. Capable, committed teachers are the key to student success. By participating in the unemployment insurance savings plan, charter public schools gain peace of mind and are able to invest more money in their teachers.
It has been our sincere pleasure to maintain a strong, vibrant business partnership with First Nonprofit. We greatly admire their strong industry knowledge, technical expertise, constant professionalism, knowledgeable and dedicated staff. They are always extremely responsive, personable and provide us with the necessary guidance and recommendations on a numerous variety of employment scenarios.

Visually Impaired Preschool Services has been a client of First Non-Profit since it was first offered as a benefit of VisionServe Alliance. We completed a thorough evaluation of cash savings to our agency before taking advantage of this wonderful benefit and it has been a very wise decision. Our experience with the processes from accounting to claims have been professional, expeditious and easy.
