The Hidden Cost of Funding: How Federal Policies and Practices Impact Nonprofits and Their Communities
September 29, 2026 | 11:00am - 12:00pm
Federal funding is powerful, but when it doesn't work well, the smallest nonprofits often carry the heaviest burden - and it costs communities.
On September 29, join the team behind The Hidden Cost of Funding to learn about research insights into how administrative burdens, short-term funding models, and excessive restrictions are straining the sector and those who depend on it.
Through this webinar, you’ll learn about:
- The impacts - positive and negative - of federal funding on organizations, nonprofit workers, and the communities they serve
- The opportunities to make federal funding more efficient, equitable and effective
- The collaborative model behind this research project
Whether you’re a funder, a policy maker, researcher or a recipient of funding, there’s something in this conversation for you.
This event is organized by Imagine Canada and the Research Center on Social Innovation and Transformation at St. Paul University.
