Report 4: Sources of Information
About Federal Stimulus Funds Nonprofits interested in applying for grants for federal funds
whether directly to federal agencies or to state and local
governments that received federal funds must remain vigilant inthese fast-paced times to remain informed.
National/Federal Information Initiall the best sources will be the new www.recover . ov website and for rant
information, the established federal website, www.grants.gov. Eventually, the websites ofthe various federal agencies overseeing particular funds should have quality informationas well.
New York State Information New Yorks official recovery website can be found at this web address:

The Governors press release regarding a convening of a Cabinet to oversee thedistribution of ARRA funds is available at this web address:http://www.economicrecovery.ny.gov/News/press21009.htm

Report 5: Information about the Proposed
Changes in Charitable Deductions
Three different federal budget bills that have filled
news headlines the last month (February, 2009). One federal budget matter (the stimulus package) has been enacted
already. Another (the delinquent 2009 federal budget) should be
enacted as earl as this week. The third the Presidents ro osed
budget for 2010) likely will not be voted on for months. This last one has generated lots of concern and confusion among
nonprofits and some donors because it proposes to reduce the
amount that high-income individuals can deduct from their taxes
for charitable contributions in order to help pay the largest part of
health care reform. Even if Congress agreed with the reduction, it would not apply to anyone until at the
earliest January 2011.
