SIGN: Letter to Idaho’s Congressional Delegation

The Idaho Nonprofit Center called for additional support for Idaho’s nonprofits regarding phase four COVID relief bill that will be discussed starting this week:

“As a part of our mission to educate, advocate and collaborate in support of stronger nonprofits, the Idaho Nonprofit Center will be sending letters to Senator Mike Crapo, Senator Jim Risch, Congressman Russ Fulcher and Congressman Mike Simpson with the following information.  

We are collecting support for and from Idaho’s nonprofits on the following topics for the phase four COVID relief bill that will be discussed starting this week:

  1. Expand access to credit (increase eligibility and support a dedicated funding stream for EIDL & PPP programs)
  2. Bolster charitable giving incentives (increasing the $300 cap and extending it beyond 2020)
  3. Protecting self-insured nonprofits (providing funding to cover 100% of the cost of these organization’s unemployment claims)
  4. Support nonprofit service providers (increasing emergency funding to all levels of our state)

If you would like to add your name, organization, and location to the letter please read through this letter and enter the information requested at the end. We will close the form on Wednesday, April 22 at 5 pm MT and send the letter by the end of the day.

We also encourage you to share this opportunity with fellow nonprofits in your community to ensure they have an opportunity to join in signing onto our letter.  

The Idaho Nonprofit Center serves as the voice for the sector, but your voice can be added to ours helping us to amplify our message. Nonprofits can and should use this opportunity to advocate on your own behalf.

We are stronger together”

Testimonials

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!

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.
