Nonprofit Risk Management Awards (NRMAs)

In an effort to promote effective risk management practices among all nonprofits, Council Services Plus, along with the Council of Community Services of NYS, Inc. (CCSNYS) and the Nonprofit Risk Management Center is pleased to announce the fourth annual Nonprofit Risk Management Awards (NRMAs).

The purpose of the NRMAs is to promote risk management to nonprofits and to honor those members of CCSNYS who practice sound risk management or who have benefited from it by avoiding a potentially troubling circumstance or lessened the devastating effects of one.

The NRMAs will focus on four areas of risk management; Employment Practices, Governance, Finance and Operations, however, entrants are encouraged to look beyond these areas if they feel it fits within the scope of the award.

Winners will be announced on August 1st, 2008 and presented their awards at the CCSNYS Annual Membership meeting, held in conjunction with CCSNYS’ annual financial management conference, Camp Finance, at the Historic Mohonk Mountain House in New Paltz on October 2nd & 3rd, 2008.

First prize will be an unrestricted cash award to the organization in an amount of $2,000, a full library of risk management publications from the Nonprofit Risk Management Center AND a complimentary scholarship to the Nonprofit Risk Management Center’s Annual Risk Management & Finance Summit to be held in Minneapolis, MN from September 7th to the 9th, 2008 including accommodations and up to $250 towards travel to and from the conference.

Up to two honorable mentions will each receive an unrestricted cash award to their organizations in an amount of $1,000 and a full library of risk management publications from the Nonprofit Risk Management Center.
