Our mission is

to strengthen

the leadership,

voice, and

organizational

effectiveness

of our state’s

nonprofits so

that they can

better enrich

the quality of

community

and personal

life in Maine.

Dear Friends,

Nonprofits matter. Scratch the surface of why

people love Maine and you’ll find a strong

network of nonprofit organizations delivering

on their mission. Maine’s nonprofits protect

the environment, care for our most vulnerable

citizens, support arts and culture, educate our

children, develop community leaders, and

sustain our spirit.

Over the past 18 years, MANP has grown

to become a critical resource for the tools,

knowledge, and connections Maine nonprofits

need to be effective and well-run. Statewide

membership has grown to more than 750

organizations because, in one member’s words,

“MANP is the go-to organization that is in touch

with the pulse of the nonprofit world and is the

best advocate for the sector.”

It is an honor to support and serve the

organizations that promote the values and ideals

that attract so many to our quality of life. We

sincerely thank our members and supporters for

their continued confidence in us.

people, economy

and future of

Maine.

investment

You may have noticed

MANP’s new look.

As our primary focus over

the past decade has been

on the expansion of programs, services and membership value, we felt this was the

perfect time to align the

MANP brand with the level

of our services.

Our goal in doing so is to

promote the work of Maine nonprofits

through member photos

(thanks to all of you who

participated!), reflect

the vibrancy of the sector with bright colors,

and highlight important

information about MANP

and the sector through

bold graphics.

In November you’ll notice

MANP’s new brand in our

MaineBiz ad campaign

(right) and all new

publications, culminating

with a new website

scheduled to launch in

February 2013.

Enjoy!

MANP believes in the

power of networks

to increase collective impact and is a

leader in convening

people and

organizations across

sectors to foster collaborative approaches

to pressing issues

and opportunities.

In partnership with

diverse Maine health

& human service

providers, MANP

promoted four

administrative streamlining proposals to

DHHS, which were

heartily endorsed by

the Commissioner

and her staff.

Implementation of all

four recommendations

has either begun or

has been completed.

blog posting, which

was viewed over

1,300 times, garnered

several positive

stories in mainstream

media raising the awareness that nonprofits are a big part of Maine’s small business community. And

we hosted our Annual

Nonprofit Day at the

State House, featuring

nonprofit exhibits and

sector-wide research,

with record attendance by sitting law makers and

excellent press

coverage. Since

its inception, 120

Our future prosperity will depend on advancing creative solutions to

address community

challenges. We

work to advance

creative public

policy supportive of

Maine nonprofits and

raise the awareness

of the critical role

of nonprofits in

our society. We testified against

five bills in the Maine

legislature detrimental

to the health of the

nonprofit sector. Each

bill was defeated.

We proposed amendments or

supplied information

on three bills affecting

nonprofits and

provided key testimony

in favor of a prompt

payment bill which

have exhibited in

the Hall of Flags on

Nonprofit Day. In 2013,

in honor of our 10th
