Donations were made to 308 of 405 participating nonprofits from around the state, representing a host of causes. The Stephen Foster Story in Bardstown placed fifth in the large nonprofit category, raising $5,406 including prize winnings. “Kentucky Gives Day was even more successful than we could have hoped for,” said Billy Bass, Media and Development Coordinator. “Our goal was to raise $2,500 for the day, which was met by 10 am! Supporters continued to give until the very end, with a donation at 11:58pm launching us to fifth place for our category.” Scott County Hospitality House in Georgetown placed second in the small nonprofit category. “This is the first time Scott County Hospitality House has participated in KY Gives Day and what a great day it was!” said Stacey Cruse, Executive Director. “It enabled us to gather support from new donors and get more exposure across the state.” Including prize winnings, Scott County Hospitality House raised $12,095 during the 24-hour event.

New Reports Highlight Economic Importance of Nonprofits Large and small, brand-new to well-known, from the arts to the environment, nonprofits help shape Kentucky communities and are an important part of the Commonwealth’s economy. Nonprofits represent a wide scope of services that provide support to Kentucky’s most vulnerable neighbors, educate and develop Kentucky children, build appreciation for the arts and culture and make the Commonwealth a better place to work and live. To better understand the economic importance of the nonprofit sector, Kentucky Nonprofit Network partnered with the Community and Economic Development Initiative of Kentucky (CEDIK) at the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture, Food and Environment for an update on the report, titled Kentucky Nonprofits: More Than Charity. For the first time, this report was able to quantify the number of individuals employed by nonprofits in Kentucky and how the nonprofit sector ranks among Kentucky industries. The study found that one in nine Kentuckians is employed by a nonprofit organization. The continued on page 4

Nonprofits Take Message to Frankfort Nonprofits from across the state gathered once again for the Ninth Annual KY Nonprofit Day at the Capitol, hosted by the Kentucky Nonprofit Network on January 30, 2014. The message that Kentucky’s nonprofits are “More Than Charity,” shared important facts to educate legislators and government officials on the economic importance of the Commonwealth’s nonprofit community. KNN released findings of a new study with the Community and Economic Development Initiative of Kentucky (CEDIK) at the More Than Charity rally in the Capitol Rotunda as part of Day at the Capitol (see page 1 for more information). The event provided nearly 100 attendees the opportunity to visit with their state legislators and government leaders to communicate their concerns with a unified voice of the nonprofit sector behind them. This event’s rally also recognized KNN members and legislative and government officials for their advocacy efforts in 2013.

Reports Praise Sector, Note Challenges continued from page 1

data analysis done by CEDIK found that nonprofits employ 11.7 percent of all Kentucky workers. In 2012, this made the nonprofit sector the third largest industry in Kentucky after government and manufacturing and larger than retail. The sector spent over $22 billion in 2012, contributing significantly to Kentucky’s economy even when charities were faced with continued cuts to funding, and for some, sharp increases in the demand for services. While the confirmation of economic importance of Kentucky’s nonprofit sector was welcome, KNN’s executive director Danielle Clore cautioned that the study also confirms that Kentucky’s nonprofits are stretched too thin. “Expenditures by Kentucky’s nonprofits are relatively flat, yet the demand for services has dramatically increased for most human service organizations,” said Clore. “This situation, coupled with fewer charitable donations and less income available from contracts with government, ultimately means less can be done to serve our most vulnerable neighbors and improve the quality of life for Kentucky communities. Nonprofits are creative and innovative by nature, but the bottom line is that the current situation facing Kentucky nonprofits is a fragile house of cards that cannot be sustained. When nonprofits are hurting, Kentuckians are hurting.” New data from the Urban Institute confirms that nonprofits contracting with government are struggling and Kentucky is among the worst states for midstream changes in government contracts with nonprofits. Kentucky nonprofits also report significant problems as a result of needlessly complex contract reporting requirements, such as a lack of consistency in the processes and requirements across different government agencies. These and other contracting issues waste time and add costs to nonprofit contractors, governments and taxpayers. The National Council of Nonprofits’ report, Toward Common Sense Contracting: What Taxpayers Deserve, recommends a number of solutions successfully implemented in other states. Among these is the establishment of a government-nonprofit task force to bring government and nonprofit leaders together to solve the time consuming, complex and often repetitive reporting requirements facing nonprofits contracting with state government. Advocating for the creation of a task force is a KNN public policy priority for the 2015 legislative session. The Nonprofit Finance Fund’s 2014 State of the Nonprofit Sector also highlights a sector facing significant challenges. Eighty percent of nonprofits surveyed reported an increased demand for services, while 56 percent cannot meet that demand - the highest in the survey’s history. Only 11 percent of respondents expect 2014 to be easier than 2013. Achieving long-term financial stability is a top challenge for respondents, yet more than half of nonprofits (55%) have three months or less cash-on-hand. The same threat • 1 in 9 Kentucky workers are employed by a of government contracting issues is prevalent across nonprofit. the nation, with 27 percent of respondents saying they • Nonprofits are a BIG part of Kentucky’s spent over 100 hours a month on administration of these economy: $22.6 billion in expenditures in 2012. contract. • Nonprofits are Kentucky’s third largest industry. • Kentucky is among the worst states for Nonprofit leaders are concerned that the current environment is not sustainable. “Despite nonprofits’ midstream changes in government contracts, resilience, it’s essential that our Commonwealth’s third costing nonprofits valuable time and money. largest sector come together with a unified voice to ensure • Nationally, the greatest challenge facing adequate funding exists to continue to provide the services nonprofits is long-term financial sustainability, yet our communities so desperately need,” said Clore. nonprofits continue to expand services based on need.

Two of KNN’s foundation members have helped expand the capacity of both KNN and nonprofits across the state. A partnership with the Steele Reese Foundation helps connect nonprofits serving Eastern Kentucky with a potential future funder. For the past two years, KNN has hosted webinars in partnership with the Steele Reese Foundation for nonprofits to learn more about their funding priorities and application process. A grant from The Greater Clark Foundation established KNN’s 2014 Capacity Building Series for organizations located in and serving the Clark County community to enhance their organizational and leadership capabilities. The series consists of workshops throughout the year that include topics such as board governance, fund development, evaluation, volunteer management and other related areas of organizational practice. “The partnership with the Kentucky Nonprofit Network enables us to help strengthen the ability of organizations that give so much to our community in the Clark County area and that continue to address the needs of the region,” said Jen Algire, president and CEO of the Foundation.

Three KNN members have ventured into the growing trend of nonprofits and small business co-locating under one roof. The Plantory in Lexington, Audubon Area Community Services in Owensboro and the Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky in Louisville have all opened shared spaces for nonprofits. With workspace often being the second largest budget item after salaries and benefies, these shared spaces are an effective social investment that provide tenant organizations with the ability to cost-share to support their missions. The Plantory in Lexington opened their new coworking space in early July. Angela Baldridge, executive director of the Plantory, notes the benefit of improving daily worklife for employees. “One of the immediate benefits of the space is that we are able to offer quality workspace for an affordable price, and that space (full of natural light, supportive communityoriented people, opportunities for wellness) really makes a tremendous difference in people’s daily worklife,” Baldridge said. “For one thing, it gives them more credibility and professionalism to be able to meet donors and partners in a conference room instead of a coffee shop. But also, I think having a professional workspace goes a long way in transforming organizations.” In addition to cost-savings, Baldridge notes that utilizing a shared workspace allows nonprofits to collaborate more. “So many nonprofits are working in silos,” she said. “From the Plantory’s perspective, I can tell you that we have benefited greatly from the coworking environment. I have so many stories of people’s expertise positively affecting our work. That’s the kind of interaction that happens when you’re working with people day in and day out. We have this great, supportive environment.” A similar venture in Western Kentucky is the Logsdon Community Center in Owensboro, an initiative led by Audubon Area Community Services. “Audubon Area and the Logsdon Community Center hope to help strengthen and sustain our community of nonprofits,” said Dawn Phillips, Coordinator for the Logsdon Community Center and Field House. The nonprofit shared workspace includes a large open room that currently holds twelve 6x6’ cubicles, but can hold up to 20 cubicles. Area organizations are taking advantage. “All twelve of our current cubicles are being utilized at this time,” Phillips added.

(c)space in Louisville has 13 private offices and 6 workstations with amenities such as free parking, visitor reception, kitchenette, use of the Foundation’s Conference Facility, and more.

The Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky in Louisville has created shared space to foster collaboration between people and organizations focused on improving the state’s health. The name (c)space, as it is known, comes from the 501(c)3 designation the Internal Revenue Service provides for charities. Tenants at (c)space may include nonprofit organizations providing research and education on health issues and health policy, or professionals such as CPAs or lawyers specializing in nonprofit work. “Shared spaces connect individuals and organizations to a like-minded community, increasing the opportunity for the exchange of ideas and collaboration,” said Mary Jo Shircliffe, Vice President, Operations & Administration for the Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky. Nonprofits serving the entire state are encouraged to utilize (c)space’s affordable options for occasional office space while in Louisville rather than setting up at a coffee shop for meetings. For more information on the shared spaces mentioned, contact these KNN members: • The Plantory, Lexington, plantory.org • Audubon Area Community Services, Owensboro, audubon-area.com • Foundation for a Healthy Kentucky, Louisville, healthy-ky.org/about-us/c-space
