⚠️ Attention Nonprofit Organizations ⚠️
As our elected officials in Trenton continue working hard to lead our state through the COVID-19 pandemic, it is vital that they include policy solutions that will enable nonprofits to provide programs and services to the people and communities that are counting on them.
The Montclair Foundation has already signed onto the New Jersey Nonprofit Community Letter to New Jersey leaders.
Make sure your organization also joins in on this call to our elected officials. Here’s the letter for your review:

Urge lawmakers to enact these measures by signing your organization’s name:
