In the throes of the global COVID-19 pandemic, organizations everywhere are feeling the effects of the economic devastation wrought by isolation measures, business shutdowns, travel bans, and markets crashing.  To assist their leaders, we have worked on pulling COVID-19 resources for nonprofits.

CDC

There is a lot of fake news out there. This being the information age, there is also a lot of misinformation around. But for legitimate and up to date facts on COVID-19; how to prevent it, how it spreads and everything else you need to stay informed, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on cdc.gov is about as reliable a source as you are likely to get.

WHO

Another reliable and educated source of information for all things COVID-19-related, is the World Health Organization (WHO). The WHO curates information from a global network of healthcare professionals via their web portal on who.int.

THE NONPROFIT RISK MANAGEMENT CENTER

The Nonprofit Risk Management Center offers a variety of services to nonprofits, including workplace safety services, fiscal oversight and fraud protection, and governance assistance. Visit their website on nonprofitrisk.org.

BRIDGESPAN

Bridgespan has set up a page for nonprofits as an easy reference guide to helpful resources such as various regional non-profit councils, educational resources, funder responses, and social distancing guidelines, to help ease the burden.

CENTER FOR DISASTER PHILANTHROPY

The Center for Disaster Philanthropy is a nonprofit organization that was established specifically to help donors maximize the effectiveness of their funds in the event of a disaster – which COVID-19 certainly is.  And while this may not necessarily be relevant to other nonprofits, their website is a valuable resource for reading material and case studies that could provide helpful insight on navigating the current crisis.

HARVARD BUSINESS REVIEW

The HBR is a great source for articles like this one and more that are helpful for employers seeking to manage the coronavirus pandemic in the workplace. In the wake of the pandemic, HBR has set up an Coronavirus Insight Center, which collects informative articles and thought leadership about the situation.

THE OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY ADMINISTRATION

The Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA), an arm of the United States Department of Labor, offers regularly updated information for employers and staff about the ever-changing state of COVID-19. The site also includes resources that guide on preventative measures that can be implemented in the workplace. Visit their site on osha.org.

THE NATIONAL COUNCIL OF NONPROFITS

The Council of Nonprofits remains an invaluable hub for information on updated policies, trends and highly relevant material relating to the COVID-19 outbreak. Visit their site for advocacy resources and useful material like this, to stay informed about the ever-changing nonprofit landscape.
