Happy Financial Friday, NMM! 🎉 This week's funding opportunity is for organizations creating meaningful change for women and girls. 📢 Grant Opportunity: COMO Foundation The COMO Foundation is seeking nonprofit partners that are focused on closing the opportunity gap for women and girls through: ✨ Education ✨ Economic security ✨ Gender equity programming Who should consider applying? ✅ Registered nonprofits operating in the communities they serve ✅ Organizations with a clear theory of change and measurable outcomes ✅ Organizations focused on advancing women and girls socially, culturally, and economically ✅ Typical annual operating budgets between $250,000 and $2 million 💰 Grant amount: Not publicly listed, but organizations are encouraged to submit an inquiry to learn more. https://comofoundation.org/partnerships/becoming-a-partner/ 📅 Deadline: Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, so there's no need to wait. 💡 NMM Tip: Even if this opportunity isn't the perfect fit for your organization, take a few minutes to research the foundation. Follow them on social media, sign up for their newsletter, and learn about the organizations they currently fund. Building relationships with funders before you need funding is one of the most overlooked grant strategies. 👇 Drop a comment if you're planning to apply or if you know another nonprofit that should see this opportunity.

I hope you have an opportunity to slow down, spend time with the people you love, and get some well deserved rest. 💙 If you happen to find a little extra time this weekend, consider investing it in you and your mission. This is a great opportunity to: ✨ Catch up on any courses you haven't completed. 📈 Level up by engaging with posts, asking questions, and supporting other members in the community. 🎯 Keep building the systems that will help your organization grow its impact. And most importantly... Take a moment to recognize how far you've already come. Leading a nonprofit isn't easy. Every grant you apply for, every donor you cultivate, every person you serve, and every challenge you overcome matters. Even if progress feels slow, you're making a difference, and we're honored to be part of your journey. Thank you for showing up, learning, sharing, and supporting one another. You're doing an incredible job, and I can't wait to see what you'll accomplish in the months ahead. Have a safe, restful, and joy filled holiday weekend! We'll see you back in the community next week. ❤️ Tell us one win you're celebrating this week, big or small. We'd love to celebrate with you! 🎉
