Melane Brown of Executive Alliance helped organized the Forum and welcomed Senate and Congressional staffers for a discussion with Not-For-Profit community leaders.

 

The topics ranged from the IRA Charitable Rollover extender legislation to the GIVE Act and how future proposed legislation could support the coming increase in many needs with an economic slowdown. According to Sheila Babb, Patty Murray is looking for ways to support and partner with the NFP community. James Allen said that Jim McDermott is very concerned about the economy and its impact on our region.
