Hello world!
Welcome to the Advance Advocacy Blog. Through this new blog I hope to post current news and stories related to nonprofit organization advocacy and lobbying. I will also add my thoughts and invite others to comment. My goal is to make this blog an interactive supportive environment for positive policy change.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) expressly allows 501(c) charities and other nonprofit organizations to lobby for legislative and public policy changes. However, too few organizations lobby. I think this is a shame and would like to do my part to encourage more organizations to take civic engagement as seriously as they do other obligations like fundraising and service delivery.
Stay tuned for more …
