A MESSAGE FROM NPCC’S CHAIRMANEMERITUS, JOHN E. CRAIG, JR.

It has been a great privilege to serve as chair of the NPCC Board for the past 28 years. I have been extremely fortunate in having worked with three outstanding presidents-executive directors over these years: Peter Swords, Jon Small, and Michael Clark. No organization is stronger than its CEO, and NPCC is no exception.

Peter, Jon, and Michael took the helm at different points in NPCC’s evolution, and each has proven to be just what the organization needed to take it to the next level of mission and performance.

Many will remember that NPCC arose out of the late Mayor Koch’s mid-1980s effort to levy property taxes on the City’s nonprofit sector. The Mayor mistakenly thought that there were a lot of rich nonprofits with properties off the tax rolls. Thanks to the committee of nonprofit leaders that was formed to educate him, the Mayor quickly learned that this was not the case. More importantly, he came around to appreciating the vital role that nonprofits play in our City, and indeed became a strong ally of the sector.

The committee that was born from that experience had the good sense to realize that New York nonprofits need a standing capacity to defend the sector when misguided regulatory or legislative actions threaten it as a whole. Thus, NPCC was formed. Early on, we recognized the need to be prepared to play not just defense when threatened, but offense as well—working with political and regulatory leaders to promote a healthier environment for nonprofits, and with the media to enhance appreciation of nonprofits’ major contribution to the City’s economy and culture.

As NPCC’s membership grew, we increasingly discovered infrastructure gaps that particularly handicapped smaller nonprofits. This led to the development of the robust set of services that NPCC now provides to its 1,400 members. I should add that none of this would have happened without the extraordinary knowledge, creativity, and skill of Marcia Brown, who served as NPCC’s Director of Programs from 1995 until just recently.

Over the last three decades, NPCC has more than proved its worth to the nonprofit sector and to the City as a whole. Our Government Relations Committee is peopled with the most knowledgeable and able lawyers in the City

focused on nonprofit matters; the services we provide to organizations—at no charge—are essential infrastructure that would otherwise be missing; and programs like the annual Nonprofit Excellence Awards are beacons for learning and achieving.

Looking forward, the need for NPCC is as great as ever: budgets of nonprofits will continue to be threatened by a still slow economy and the uncertain fiscal shape of governments; at the same time, growing inequality in our society is placing more demands on nonprofits. Fortunately, it’s likely that more and more young people are going to be drawn to the nonprofit sector, by the opportunity to improve society and their communities and by the scarcity of jobs in the for-profit sector. As more nonprofits appear, NPCC is going to be increasingly needed as a clearinghouse on best practices and the go-to place for how to get things done. And the sector will always be vulnerable to well-intentioned but misguided regulatory initiatives that could cause the sector harm. More positively, NPCC will continue to be an essential voice in the development of policies aimed at improving the accountability and performance of the nonprofit sector.

In addition to its staff and GR Committee, NPCC’s other great strength is its board—some of the best nonprofit leaders in the City. I find it gratifying that someone of Ian Benjamin’s experience and standing will now lead our highly engaged and hard-working board.

If NPCC has a weakness, it is that it provides what economists call a “public good”: services from which society at large and every nonprofit in the City benefit, whether they contribute to the organization’s support or not. My hope is that we can continue to grow our dues-paying membership and attract more support from foundations and other sponsors (including individuals) with the ability to help underwrite a public good like NPCC.

I step down as Chair of NPCC with enormous satisfaction for having been present at its creation and then participating in its development into the very strong organization that it is today. This is a unique organization—indeed an indispensable one—performing a unique role that is likely to grow in the coming years.

John E. Craig, Jr.

A MESSAGE FROM NPCC’S BOARD CHAIRMAN AND PRESIDENT

Fiscal Year 2014 (October 1, 2013-September 30, 2014) was an eventful one for the Nonprofi t Coordinating Committee of New York (NPCC). As the leading voice and information source for New York City area nonprofi ts, NPCC is the largest membership and service umbrella in the region.

As we do every year, we performed as a “one stop shop” for nonprofi t organizations, offering information, guidance, hands-on help, management and governance support, and discounts on business services. The following pages reveal how NPCC strengthened nonprofi ts in so many ways, particularly serving our more than 1,400 member nonprofi ts through scores of free workshops as well as capacity-building programs that deliver practical management training and coaching. We worked with City, State and federal government agencies so that nonprofi ts could comply with necessary regulations without curtailing their work to achieve their missions. And, we informed and helped nonprofi ts themselves to be accountable and effective.

But this also has been a year of major change for NPCC. Our long-time Chairman, John E. Craig, Jr., informed us in early 2014 that he was stepping down after 28 years. John’s farewell letter is on the facing page. We believe it wonderfully conveys the gracious, wise and visionary leadership and guidance that John has brought to NPCC for these many years. We will all surely miss him!

But, that’s not all. Michael Clark, who has served NPCC as President and CEO since 2005, also informed the board that he plans to step down by the end of September, 2015. “Although I very much plan to stay professionally busy,” Michael says, “after nearly 30 years heading up nonprofi t organizations, I want to catch up with my children and grandchildren. We are right on schedule for these transitions according to our current Strategic Plan, and NPCC is clearly headed forward. It’s been a wonderful experience, and I have learned a ton at NPCC from the hundreds of great managers and other leaders in our sector.”

A Leadership Transition Committee was formed, initially to plan for John’s announced departure. This committee is co-chaired by Board Members Karen Pearl and Bobby Watts who are leading us through these signifi cant transitions.

On December 1, 2014, Ian J. Benjamin, who has served on the NPCC Board for many years, including as our Audit chair and as a key member of our Finance and Executive Committee, was elected NPCC’s new chairman. Ian is a partner at McGladrey LLP where he leads the Not-for-Profi t, Education and Healthcare Services Practice and Employee Benefi t Plans Practice in the fi rm’s New York offi ce. “It’s an honor to be elected as the incoming NPCC chair,” Ian says. “I’ve been a member of the NPCC board for over 10 years and a vice chair since March, 2009. It’s a privilege to move into this new role and continue serving alongside this dedicated board and committee. John Craig has been instrumental to the success of NPCC and I will strive to continue building the relationships and groundwork he set forth.”

In January, 2015, the board retained the services of a nationally known search fi rm headed by Marilyn Machlowitz to conduct a search for Michael’s successor. The search had just begun as we put this FY 2014 report to bed. We are very confi dent that the search will succeed in fi nding just the kind of leader that will take NPCC to its next level of greatness. Meanwhile, our deep and undying gratitude to our members, supporters, partners, board members and amazing staff for getting us to where we are today. You remind us every day in many, many ways why we do what we do!

Warmly yours,

Ian J. Benjamin, Michael E. Clark,Chairman President

2014 New York Community Trust Nonprofit Excellence Awards Program

The 2014 Nonprofit Excellence Awards were produced by NPCC in partnership with The New York Community Trust and Philanthropy New York. The program was sponsored by WNYC, and also supported by the Clark Foundation, Ford Foundation, Google, Taconic Foundation, McGladrey LLP, the Fund for the City of New York, and Columbia Business School Executive Education Programs in Social Enterprise. In its eighth year, the Awards raised awareness about excellent management in the large

and diverse nonprofit community in the New York City area, highlighted best management practices, and helped educate all nonprofits on what it takes to measurably improve performance in Eight Key Areas of Nonprofit Excellence.

To date, a total of 2,208 unique nonprofit organizations, representing a broad cross-section of the nonprofit community in New York City, Long Island and Westchester, have participated in the Awards program, which has been the source of at least 3,298 reported organizational improvements among these groups.The 2014 Awards drew a total

STRENGTHENING NONPROFITS

One of the most important roles that NPCC plays is as a high-value conduit of knowledge and expertise. Whether by promoting best industry practices through our annual Nonprofit Excellence Awards, publishing a widely read

monthly newsletter, hosting more than 50 “sold out” workshops, or offering 200+ resource materials, NPCC is a major portal of information for the New York City area’s nonprofit sector.

of 77 applications—a 25% jump over the prior year. Applications were reviewed by an expert Selection Committee, which, after an 8-month, 3-stage selection process, identified three winning organizations. The 2014 winners were announced and interviewed at a Best Practices Workshop and Awards Presentation in November, 2014.

Leake & Watts, the Gold Prize Winner for Overall Management Excellence, received a $30,000 prize; Row New York received the

Silver Prize and $20,000; and, Graham Windham, the Bronze Prize winner, received $10,000. All also received scholarships for the Columbia Business School Executive Education Programs in Social Enterprise.

The intended outcome for all applicants is to improve their management practices, enabling them to become more effective in achieving their organizational mission. Testimonials like that of

staff provided tailored feedback to 69% of 2014 applicants on their applications based on the Selection Committee’s scoring. Participants have already reported using this detailed feedback to inform new strategic plans, improve program performance, and revamp communication strategies. To further promote awareness and use of excellent management strategies spotlighted by the Awards program, NPCC also conducts a series of Pathways to Excellence workshops

Amanda Kraus, Executive Director & Founder of Row New York (above), are evidence of the positive impact of this program on participants.

To date, the 2014 Awards program has served 479 unique nonprofits, who have reported making 665 organizational improvements as a result of participating in the program. To encourage and support participating nonprofit managers in implementing management best practices, NPCC

GOLD PRIZE WINNERLeake & WattsFounded as an orphanage in 1831, Leake & Watts continues to provide support to thousands of children, adults and families each day so they can achieve success tomorrow through a wide variety of early childhood, child welfare, developmental disabilities, special education, and juvenile justice programs.

Five years ago, Leake & Watts was operating with a multi-million dollar deficit and 80% of all its programs were in

corrective action. Today, it operates with a surplus, has had clean audits for the past five years, and is routinely cited for

its excellent program practices and outcomes.

This remarkable turnaround is the result of implementing a robust set of management practices, including financial management focused on rate maximization and program utilization, competency-based hiring and focus on employee satisfaction. The turnaround also included establishing an agency-wide culture focused on results and building systems that leadership could turn to for data to help guide the organization. They developed and employed a set of 39 Performance Effectiveness Indicators for measuring outcomes that go far beyond those prescribed by grants or contracts. A strong collaboration among the Board and staff involved being transparent about what they were doing and holding people accountable.

“When I discovered these Awards in 2007, I felt like they had created a great learning tool on the best ways to run a nonprofit. I

remember sitting in my living room going through the

guidelines, checking off the things that we were doing and highlighting the things

we weren’t doing. There was a lot of highlighting.”

to disseminate best practices and management lessons from the program’s first eight years.

Information, Referrals and Guidance to Nonprofits

NPCC provides a large volume of hard-to-find, reliable and personalized assistance for nonprofit managers through responses to requests for information, referrals and guidance. This is rated by members as our most valuable service and clearly is the key to our high membership retention. Results from our Fall, 2014 member survey reveal that 93% of organizations using our

Government Grants Information Service (GGIS)

GGIS helps member nonprofits secure government grants through customized funding alerts. In FY 2014, over 900 grant announcements were sent to over 850 subscribers with federal, State and City government grant opportunities. Results from our 2014 survey indicate that more than 93% of organizations using this service rated it “excellent,” “very good,” or “good.” Members secured more than $7.7 million in government grants using GGIS. Workshops and Roundtables

NPCC’s workshops provide much-needed technical and managerial expertise and information to area nonprofits. We regularly update and add topics, evaluate member interest in future topics, and track workshop results. In FY 2014, NPCC offered 50 workshops covering a wide range of management issues. Attendance remained high, with most workshops “sold out” in advance. Total attendance for all 50 workshops was 2,708. Some 89% of attendees completing workshop evaluations reported that the workshops were helpful; 88% reported learning something new or useful; and 93% reported that they would use what they learned to improve their organizations. Some 60% of respondents to our three-month follow-up surveys reported making organizational improvements based on workshop information.

NPCC’s website received an average of 18,000 unique visitors per month during FY 2014.

Nonprofi t Outsourcing Clearinghouse (NOC)

NOC helps nonprofi ts reduce administrative costs, increase productivity, and improve operational quality through outsourcing key back-offi ce services. An online NOC vendor database (noc.npccny.org/noc) includes some 95 vetted outsourcing vendors from eight key areas: Bookkeeping & Financial Management, Fundraising, Human Resources, IT Services, Legal Services, Marketing & Communications, Purchasing, and Risk Management. NPCC also offers a “A Nonprofi t Guide to Outsourcing” to help nonprofi ts make sound decisions about outsourcing services.

BRONZE PRIZE WINNERGraham WindhamSince its founding in 1806, Graham Windham has been a vital force in providing innovative child welfare, educational, vocational, youth development and other social service programs to help New York City’s children and families achieve life-changing outcomes.

In 2009, the Board and senior management of this nearly 220-year-old organization began a re-visioning process informed

by its deep ongoing review of the organization’s performance, impact and outcomes. As a result of this process, Graham

Windham was able to go from good to great.

In refreshing its mission, Graham Windham clarifi ed its fundamental commitment to children who have experienced childhood neglect and trauma and their families. To advance this mission, Graham Windham transitioned programs that were deemed off-mission to other providers, assessed the effectiveness of each of its core approaches, and implemented Solutions-Based Casework across all programs. Informed by advisory groups of those it serves, and co-led by staff and a very strong and involved board, Graham Windham annually sets almost 50 mission-aligned goals and over 100 targets to assess performance. The Board has an impressive committee structure, including a Program Performance Committee, designed to ensure intense board member participation.

SERVING OUR MEMBERS

NPCC is the largest membership and service organization for all types of 501 (c)(3) nonprofits in the New York City area. Nonprofit members have access to a wealth of free services: information, guidance and advice, copies

of our widely-read newsletter, over 50 free workshops each year and some 15 cost-saving vendor programs. With NPCC’s help, our members manage and govern themselves better, are more equipped to comply with government regulations, and operate more effectively and accountably. As a result, they better serve their communities, clients and causes.

At the end of FY 2014, NPCC’s nonprofit membership was 1,433. Total membership, which includes individuals and corporate members, was 1,485. While there was a slight reduction in membership numbers in 2014, the level of membership dues increased slightly, relative to prior year levels. A number of our members are struggling with cash flow problems, making it difficult to renew their membership in NPCC as quickly as they have in past years.

In an effort to build our membership, we collaborated with several key networking and umbrella organizations over the past year. Through these outreach initiatives we developed stronger relationships with umbrella groups, increased awareness about NPCC’s programs and services and encouraged prospective members to join NPCC. We look forward to strengthening these partnerships across all nonprofit subsectors in 2015 and beyond.

Member Cost-Savings Programs

NPCC offers several cost-saving vendor services that help member nonprofits focus their money and resources on program work, rather than back-office expenses. In 2014, NPCC rolled out a new member service in partnership with RoundTable Technology, a company that provides IT services to nonprofits. RoundTable offers NPCC members free organizational IT and social media assessments, with

NPCC | 7

follow-up reports on findings and recommendations. RoundTable and NPCC announced the partnership in June, 2014, and close to 50 organizations have already participated in the program, saving a total of more than $8,000.

In addition to NPCC’s program with RoundTable Technology, we offer

a portfolio of 14 other cost-saving vendor services for members. In FY 2014, our members saved more than $2 million by participating in the programs, which include:

Insurance Programs

For many years, NPCC has partnered with Crystal & Company to offer our members a cost effective and comprehensive Directors and Officers (D&O) Liability Insurance program. The policy covers nonprofits and their directors, officers, employees, trustees, committee members and volunteers. Close to 600 member organizations had coverage through this program in FY 2014.

In addition to our D&O insurance program, NPCC offers members a Property and Casualty Insurance program, administered through Crystal & Company and Northeast Agencies, Inc. The policy covers property loss, business interruption and crime; general liability; automobile liability; physical damage; workers’ compensation and employers’ liability; special events; and, umbrella/excess liability. In FY 2014, more than 63 member organizations had coverage through this program.

Retirement Benefits Program

For over 20 years, NPCC has partnered with MetLife to offer

members two comprehensive retirement benefit plans: a 403(b) Tax Deferred Annuity (TDA) plan and a Simplified Employer Pension Plan (SEPP). At the end of FY 2014, 297 organizations representing 7,277 employees were enrolled, with total assets exceeding $175 million.

Managing Unemployment Costs

NPCC partners with Unemployment Services Trust (UST) to help members safely opt out of the state unemployment tax system. UST helps eligible nonprofits save up to 60% on their state unemployment tax rate through ongoing education, expert claims management, and reserve building. In FY 2014,

members saved more than $188,604 in unemployment costs by participating in UST.

Payroll Processing

Members may enroll in NPCC’s program with Paychex for complete payroll processing services. The services are offered at a significant discount off their regular rates. Last year, more than 300 NPCC members saved $179,000 on payroll services through the Paychex program.

Discounted Office Supplies

NPCC members have access to thousands of office supplies,

printing and copy services, furniture and design solutions, janitorial and green cleaning supplies through the Staples Advantage program. More than 500 NPCC members participated in the program in FY 2014. The program saved members more than $1 million.

TransitChek

Through NPCC’s partnership with TransitChek, NPCC members can enroll in the Commuter Benefit Program and set aside a portion of their pre-tax salary for commuting costs. In FY 2014, the program saved NPCC members $127,715 by reducing overall payroll taxes.

Background Check Services

The National Council of Nonprofits and NPCC also have a vendor partnership with Coeus Global, a company that provides screening and background check services in full compliance with state and federal regulations. In FY 2014, NPCC members saved more than $31,000 through the program.

Financial Management

Jitasa offers finance, accounting and bookkeeping services tailored to meet the needs of nonprofits. In FY 2014, more than 40 NPCC member organizations participated in the program, saving a total of more than $80,000.

Legal Assistance: Employment and Labor Relations

Attorney Allen Breslow, a regular NPCC workshop presenter, offers guidance on questions about labor

and employment law, and employee benefits to several NPCC members. In 2014, 104 member organizations sought advice or utilized these services.

Financial Management Courses

FMA Institute offers NPCC members discounts on the institute’s Certified Nonprofit Accounting Professional (CNAP) courses as well as trainings on Excel and QuickBooks.

Discounted Publications and Memberships

Through NPCC membership, nonprofits have access to significant savings on BoardSource and Theatre Development Fund memberships, plus discounted subscriptions to The Chronicle of Philanthropy, Crain’s New York Business and Stanford Social Innovation Review.

WORKING WITH GOVERNMENT

NPCC’s unique mission, among more than 80 varied nonprofit umbrella groups in our area, is to represent the full breadth of the 501(c)(3) nonprofit community on sector-wide issues, particularly governance and regulatory

matters that affect all New York nonprofit corporations. NPCC’s Government Relations Committee is the only New York City area umbrella of this kind, advocating for and protecting the broad legal and regulatory environment or “regime” that governs all sizes and types of charitable nonprofits.

NPCC’s Government Relations (GR) Committee is composed of the area’s top nonprofit legal and accounting professionals, including five former heads of the NYS Attorney General’s Charities Bureau. Its views on nonprofit regulatory and legal matters are routinely sought by key officials at all levels of government.

The Committee meets 10 months a year, consults regularly with officials of the Governor’s office, State agencies and legislators, the Attorney General’s office, local

officials and federal bodies that regulate nonprofits. This enablesNPCC to continuously inform New York City area nonprofits on key regulatory and legal developments affecting the entire sector.

In FY 2014, the Committee was chaired by Barbara Schatz, NPCC Board Member and Clinical Professor of Law at Columbia Law School, and staffed by Robert J. Vanni, NPCC’s Senior Consultant for Government Relations. Some highlights of the Committee’s work include:

Attorney General’s Nonprofit Revitalization Act and NYS Nonprofit Law Reform

The Nonprofit Revitalization Act was signed into law by the Governor on December 18, 2013, following significant input and support by NPCC and the Government Relations Committee. In 2014, a short technical corrections bill was also enacted. Following enactment, the Committee has closely followed how practitioners and scholars are interpreting and implementing the Act’s broad changes. Members

NPCC | 11

of the Committee, including Barbara Schatz, David Lowden, Linda Manley and Robert Vanni, led two workshops for members to explain the elements of the Act and to answer questions as to its interpretation and implementation. James G. Sheehan, Chief of the Charities Bureau of the Attorney General’s Office was a guest of the Committee in February, 2014, and main speaker at NPCC’s Annual Meeting in April, 2014. We took these opportunities to get to know the new leadership, to continue our dialogue with the Charities Bureau, and to urge them to clarify and offer

guidance on many of the questions facing nonprofits and their legal advisors as to how to comply with the Act’s terms and how to interpret many of its provisions. The Committee’s objective is to learn from its members the problems they perceive in the Act, and then develop a list of recommended amendments that might make it more internally consistent, clearer and more easily implementable by nonprofits. To this end, an NPCC subcommittee met on January 7, 2015, to discuss possible amendments to the Act that the Legislature might consider. With this guidance, Barbara Schatz and

NPCC’s efforts to improve the partnership between nonprofits and government reached a milestone when Governor Andrew Cuomo signed the Nonprofit Revitalization Act in 2013. This legislation is the first major reworking of the laws governing New York nonprofits in over 40 years, and NPCC and members of the Government Relations Committee were extensively consulted about the legislation throughout the entire process.

In an effort to help our members comply with the new law, NPCC’s GR Committee created several helpful guides and resources, including:

By-Laws Review Checklist

This checklist identifies key revisions that an organization may wish to make, and, in certain circumstances, should make, to its by-laws in light of the Nonprofit Revitalization Act. Each organization’s by-laws are different, and this checklist may not address each item that should be revised or reviewed in an organization’s by-laws, but it is a good guide to key changes.

Whistleblower Policy

Effective July 1, 2014, every New York nonprofit, education corporation, religious corporation and charitable trust that has 20 or more employees and annual revenue exceeding $1 million in its prior fiscal year, must adopt a whistleblower policy that complies with the requirements of the Nonprofit Revitalization Act. NPCC’s sample whistleblower policy complies with the requirements of the Act.

Conflict of Interest Policy

Effective July 1, 2014, every New York nonprofit, education corporation, religious corporation and charitable trust must adopt a conflict of interest policy that complies with the requirements of the Nonprofit Revitalization Act. An organization’s conflict of interest policy serves as a guide to assist directors, officers and key employees in fulfilling their duties to the organization and to facilitate compliance with applicable state and federal law. NPCC’s sample conflict of interest policy complies with the requirements of the Nonprofit Revitalization Act.

representatives of Lawyers Alliance for New York met in Albany on January 13, 2015, with members of the staffs of Senator Ranzenhofer and Assemblyman Brennan, co-sponsors of the Act, to recommend and urge amendments.

In an effort to offer assistance to members to better understand and comply with the requirements of the Act, in addition to workshops, NPCC and the GR Committee drafted and posted on the NPCC website sample whistleblower and conflict of interest policies that comply with the terms of the Act.

Governor’s Executive Order #38 (EO 38) and Regulations

Final regulations to implement EO 38, aimed at reducing excessive compensation at State-funded entities, have been posted on the websites of State agencies. In June, 2013, the Executive Office issued a substantial document, “Preliminary Guidance - Executive Order #38 and Related Regulations,” to assist nonprofits considered to be “Covered Providers” to better understand how to comply with the Executive Order’s terms. Organizations are beginning to implement these terms; however, the GR Committee is monitoring two lawsuits that deal with the constitutionality of the Order. Both lawsuits are on appeal, awaiting hearings.

New York State Contract Reform and Related Federal Contract Reforms

Fran Barrett, the Governor’s Interagency Coordinator for Nonprofit Organizations, is leading an effort along with the State

Division of the Budget to reform the State’s process of contracting with nonprofits, seeking to streamline and make it less cumbersome, more efficient and transparent. NPCC and the GR Committee have actively participated in discussions about this effort. A final Master Contract was posted on grantsreform.ny.gov in March, 2013. The new contracting process and use of the new Master Contract are being rolled out by various State agencies, and many contractees already have complied with the prequalification procedures. The GR Committee will continue monitoring this effort and anticipates co-sponsoring training sessions with the State Division of the Budget on these matters. We remain in regular contact with Ms. Barrett, and during the reporting period she has attended two meetings of the Committee, in January and June, 2014, to discuss developments in the Grants Gateway program.

Related to this effort, the federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued the “OMB Uniform Guidance” that significantly impacts the process whereby the federal government contracts with nonprofits, in an effort to make the contracting process simpler and more streamlined. The Guidance became effective on December 26, 2014. Among the more significant changes is the requirement that, if federal funds are used to pay for services from nonprofits, whether directly through federal contracts or indirectly through state or municipal contracts, then the contract must reimburse nonprofits for related indirect costs at a negotiated rate, but not less than 10%. In June, 2014, David L. Thompson, Vice President of the National Council

of Nonprofits, the organization and network largely responsible for securing these nonprofit-friendly reforms in the new OMB Uniform Guidance, attended the Committee’s meeting to explain and advise on the provisions of the Guidance, their impact on nonprofits, and next steps. In December, 2014, Mr. Thompson and his colleague, Beth Bowsky, the National Council of Nonprofit’s Policy Specialist, Government - Nonprofit Contracting, conducted a workshop for NPCC members on using the OMB Uniform Guidance to cover indirect costs.

NPCC and the GR Committee are closely following this matter in an effort to advise and educate NPCC members of their rights under this new Guidance and to ensure that the New York State and City contracts properly reflect the new requirements.

NYC Efforts to Limit Nonprofit Real Estate Tax Exemptions

The City Department of Finance and City Tax Commission have recently taken certain unilateral actions to limit, deny or withdraw nonprofit real estate tax exemptions.

In the matter of the Drug Policy Alliance (DPA), a request for an exemption was summarily denied by the Department of Finance. NPCC, with the pro bono assistance of Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, prepared and filed an amicus curiae brief in support of DPA’s position that the action taken was contrary to established state law and practice. A court hearing on this matter was held in February, 2013. In November, 2013, Judge Wooton of the NYS Supreme Court

NPCC | 13

issued a decision in DPA’s favor, finding the City’s actions contrary to established state law, and ordered that DPA’s request for real estate tax exemption be granted. The City has appealed the decision to the Appellate Division, and the argument is scheduled for March 5, 2015. NPCC has joined with Lawyers Alliance for New York in submitting a new amicus curiae brief in the appeal, supporting the DPA’s position.

Greater Jamaica Development Corporation (GJDC) has similarly sued the Department of Finance for its decision to revoke some of GJDC’s real estate tax exemptions. NPCC, through the GR Committee, also joined an amicus curiae brief in this case, along with Lawyers Alliance for New York, the Queens Chamber of Commerce, and others in support of GJDC. In May, 2013, the Appellate Division for the Second Department heard an appeal and issued its decision in favor of the organization’s position, finding the City’s actions to be arbitrary and capricious, and ordering that the exemption be reinstated. The City has appealed this decision to the Court of Appeals and is awaiting a hearing date. NPCC and Lawyers Alliance are preparing a new amicus curiae brief to be submitted in the appeal case, in support of GJDC’s position. NPCC and the GR Committee continue to monitor these matters.

Threatened Limits on Charitable Deductions under the Internal Revenue Code and Federal Budget Negotiations

NPCC and the GR Committee closely followed matters in Washington that might impact nonprofits,

including negotiations concerning threats to limit charitable deductions, the status of extension of certain donation incentives known as “extenders,” the impact of sequestration, Presidential Congressional budget proposals and negotiations, postal reform as it relates to nonprofit postal rate discounts, and continuing IRS oversight and investigations efforts, as well as proposed IRS regulations changes concerning 501(c)(4) corporations. Many of these issues continue to be monitored by the GR Committee for their potential negative impact on nonprofits. NPCC will take appropriate actions through the GR Committee as warranted and inform NPCC members accordingly. At the end of the 113th Congressional session, NPCC along with the national nonprofit community, actively urged the Senate to approve a bill that would make the nonprofit extenders a permanent part of the tax code. Unfortunately, after great effort, the lame duck session only made the expired extenders retroactively effective for the year 2014, thus giving donors and donees less than three weeks to take advantage of their benefits. The Committee is closely following the actions of the new Congress on this and related nonprofit issues and will report and take action as appropriate.

Other Matters

• GR Committee Chair Barbara Schatz has maintained a dialogue with the NYS Department of State to discuss procedures to facilitate the process for forming a nonprofit corporation in New York and other issues facing nonprofits under New York law.

• The GR Committee is monitoring the IRS “scandal,” including Congressional hearings and possible actions resulting from an inquiry into the IRS’s actions in scrutinizing political activities by certain 501(c)(4) social welfare nonprofits, and how these developments might affect 501(c)(3) nonprofits. In response to this matter, the IRS is expected to issue new draft regulations in early 2015, for 501(c)(4) corporations, which NPCC will closely follow, especially as they might affect 501(c)(3) corporations.

• Due to the continuing economic problems faced by New York State municipalities, the GR Committee is monitoring proposals around the State to increase fees on nonprofits, such as water and sewer fees, as well as discussions concerning the imposition of PILOTs (Payments in Lieu of Taxes) on nonprofits and will consider actions as appropriate.

• The GR Committee continued to monitor and report on changes in minimum wage laws, City Human Rights Law, the launch of the City’s HHS Accelerator program, a report by the State Comptroller on tax exempt real estate in the State, NYC Earned Sick Time Act, and State and City lobby law changes.

BUILDING NPCC CAPACITY

Communications

Part of NPCC’s 2013 – 2015 strategic plan involves strengthening our overall communications capabilities. Following a preliminary communications audit in FY 2013, two key areas of need were identified: (1) developing a comprehensive narrative strategy and communications plan for NPCC; and, (2) redesigning our website to improve its functionality and content. We are currently working with two communications consultants on these issues.

Strengthen Board Capacity

We continue to pursue our goal of building a board that is representative of the New York City nonprofit sector and better able to leverage resources. In FY 2014, we recruited three new board members.

In 2014, Ian J. Benjamin succeeded John E. Craig, Jr. as Chair of the NPCC Board of Directors. Mr. Benjamin is a partner at McGladrey LLP where he leads the Not-for-Profit, Education and Healthcare Services Practice and Employee Benefit Plans Practice in the firm’s New York office. He is a member of

McGladrey’s National Leadership Team for nonprofits and has more than 30 years of experience serving nonprofit and higher education organizations. He has served as a member of the NPCC Board for more than 10 years and Vice Chair since March, 2009.

Organizational Capacity and Performance

NPCC maintains an organizational Scorecard, based on the Balanced Scorecard method of tracking organizational performance. The Scorecard is a tool helpful in setting annual performance targets and milestones, and it visually

In 2012, NPCC began a strategic reforecast to guide our work through 2015. One of the main goals is to strengthen our own sustainable management capacity to serve the nonprofit community and adhere to our mission. Key areas of organizational

growth include: improved communications infrastructure, staff, board and volunteer development, and tracking organizational capacity and performance.

NPCC | 15

demonstrates the impact of our work for our members and other nonprofits. It also facilitates funding and helps clarify our value to supporters and stakeholders. The NPCC 2014 Scorecard is found at the end of this report.

Staff and Management

All programs and services are supervised and reviewed regularly by NPCC staff for effectiveness and cost management. Reports are given to NPCC’s Board of Directors for further input and review at least four times a year.

Michael Clark, President of NPCC, oversees all program and administrative functions and serves as principal liaison with the Board of Directors. He has more than 35 years of professional training and experience in urban issues, public health and nonprofit management, largely in the area of nonprofit capacity-building. Prior to NPCC, he served for 19 years as President and Executive Director of the Citizens Committee for New York City.

Marcia Brown, long-time Director of Programs, stepped down from her role at the end of FY 2014. During Ms. Brown’s nearly 20 years at NPCC, she developed more than 800 workshops, provided information and referrals to thousands of NPCC members, and helped build and develop many of NPCC’s vendor services.

Succeeding Ms. Brown, in September, 2014, Melkis Alvarez-Baez became Director of Programs and Danielle Penabad became Director of Member Services. Ms. Baez directs all programs and

program development activities for NPCC, including the Nonprofit Excellence Awards. She has a B.A. from Harvard College and an M.S. in Nonprofit Management from the Milano School of International Affairs, Management and Urban Policy.

Ms. Penabad develops and implements programs and projects designed to serve, increase and retain NPCC membership. She also leads outreach activities in collaboration with numerous external constituencies. She has a B.A. from Dartmouth College and an M.P.A. in Nonprofit Management from Seton Hall University.

Constance Ferber, Program Associate, coordinates workshop delivery and tracks results for all NPCC programs. She has a B.A. from the College of Wooster and an M.A. in Human Rights Studies from Columbia University. Kristen Jones, Executive Coordinator, provides general administrative support for the management team. She has a B.A. from Rhodes College.

Neil Bhattacharya, Development Associate, is the most recent addition to NPCC staff. He coordinates and provides support for NPCC’s institutional and individual fundraising activities.

Robert J. Vanni serves as Senior Consultant for Government Relations and provides leadership and staff support to this committee. He was previously Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of The New York Public Library, Astor, Lenox and Tilden Foundations, a private nonprofit corporation, operating 90 branches and four research libraries with an annual budget of $290 million.

Consultant Dan Myers produces NPCC’s newsletter, manages the Government Grants Information Service and the NPCC website, and carries out special projects and surveys.

This Annual Report is prepared for NPCC’s Annual Meeting of members.

NPCC SCORECARD

Our MissionThe Nonprofit Coordinating Committee of New York serves as the voice and information source for the New York City area nonprofit community, so that nonprofits are better informed, managed, governed and represented at all levels of government, and better equipped to achieve their missions.

Our VisionThe quality of life for all New Yorkers depends on a strong, vibrant and diverse nonprofit sector. Nonprofits must manage and govern themselves well, be accountable and transparent to donors, constituents and the public, and pursue their missions effectively. As NPCC’s influence and membership grow, so does our ability to help member nonprofits achieve these objectives. NPCC’s goal is to be New York nonprofits’ most reliable source for information, advice, quality programs and services, their most effective advocate on sector-wide issues, and widely recognized as such.
