DANA continues to provide access to information resources and support in sustainability, strategic planning, fundraising, diversity, equity, and inclusion, and advocacy. Over 1,500 individuals participated in one of many DANA learning programs. Over 80 nonprofits benefitted from custom training or consulting engagements of which, 58% were returning clients. DANA was the recipient of federal SBA funds to launch a Nonprofit Accelerator, a three-year program to help build sustainable nonprofit cultures. The first cohort of seven organizations launched in the fall of 2023 and will continue through 2026. DANA also received an ARPA grant which will be applied to a second cohort to launch in 2024. 639972 ADVANCING THE NONPROFIT SECTOR - SEE SCHEDULE O FOR DESCRIPTIONADVANCING THE NONPROFIT SECTOR - DANA engages nonprofit leaders and government officials in dialogue around the vital role of nonprofits in the state of Delaware. Through workshops, meetings and attendance at legislative sessions, DANA offers educational information on state and federal legislative and budget matters that impact the sector. DANA's subsector advocacy days builds advocacy muscle within DE nonprofits. This program teaches nonprofits employees and boards how to engage with policy makers, assisting with introductions and advising on how to promote their mission causes. Our Public Policy Communities of Practice gives DANA members an opportunity to shape DANA's advocacy agenda, raise issues that we should be aware of, and provide members insights into specific legislative initiatives. With inflation and a tight labor force impacting nonprofits and those they serve DANA's advocacy efforts were expanded to explore ways to reduce costs and retain employees. One way is to reduce the costs of health insurance premiums. DANA received an ARPA grant to explore the feasibility and to launch an Association health plan. 163154 4100 ENHANCING DANA MEMBERS - SEE SCHEDULE O FOR DESCRIPTIONENHANCING DANA MEMBERS - delivered forums/cost savings opportunities/tools for nonprofit organizations to share ideas and resources with one another and to create connections with community members, funders, elected officials, and other potential partners. DANA's membership grew to 533 members which includes nonprofits, government agencies, small businesses, and emerging nonprofits. Member retention was 80%. We continue to see growth with smaller, grassroots led nonprofits as DANA expanded more free services that appealed to smaller agencies. DANA distributed free resources to members including standards for excellence packets, compensation benchmark data, sample board policy templates, and other resources to help members enhance their internal policies. 1316407 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 18 0 1 15 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 15 15 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 X X X THE ORGANIZATION 3027775500 100 WEST 10TH STREET 1012 WILMINGTON DE 19801 FAYETTA BLAKE CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 JENNIFER CHO VICE CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 VICKIE YOUNG BEAM TREASURER 2.00 X X 0 0 0 KATHLEEN HAWKINS SECRETARY 2.00 X X 0 0 0 DOMINIC CANUSO BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 KEVIN GILMORE BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 GUILLERMINA GONZALEZ BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 DORIS GRIFFIN BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 DANIEL HARRIS BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 EMILY LEACH BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 ROBERT MCCREARY BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 CHARLES NANGERONI BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 CORY BENJAMIN NIZIOLEK BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 JERRY PENROSE BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 TOM SHERIDAN BOARD MEMBER 0.50 X 0 0 0 SHEILA BRAVO PRESIDENT & CEO 40.00 X 166177 0 0 166177 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 137717 982374 1120091 EXCELLENCE ACADEMY 611430 306553 306553 ANNUAL CONFERENCE AND 611430 130437 130437 ACCELERATOR PROGRAM 611430 70457 70457 OTHER PROGRAM INCOME 611430 4100 4100 511547 8403 8403 1640041 511547 0 8403 166177 134008 22987 9182 692175 558182 95750 38243 83620 67234 11708 4678 65686 52968 9088 3630 50102 50102 54597 54597 3092 3092 7298 5790 1077 431 15443 12243 2287 913 28540 22625 4227 1688 18274 14574 2644 1056 75161 75161 17305 13671 2596 1038 6072 4814 899 359 EXCELLENCE ACADEMY 137734 137734 OTHER PROGRAM EXPENSE 58987 58987 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMEN 44203 44203 68411 59616 6282 2513 1592877 1316407 212739 63731 562908 1123163 1339611 58092 22923 24798 30312 90250 61818 34627 28432 680425 2544441 53164 50018 81349 1887316 134513 1937334 X 483912 557107 62000 50000 545912 607107 680425 2544441 47164 14031 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 841648 441654 1316321 333747 1120091 4053461 841648 441654 1316321 333747 1120091 4053461 2203852 1849609 407 1727 545 5310 8403 16392 4069853 2565210 0.45450 0.55530 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 54597 0 0 54597 0 90250 61818 28432 28432 1654072 14031 14031 1640041 0 1640041 1592877 0 1592877 0 1592877 X X X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 SHEILA BRAVO PRESIDENT & CEO 166177 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 166177 0 0 0 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6 THE ORGANIZATION HAS MEMBERS.
