Help the helpers: Rhode Island needs its nonprofits, and R.I. nonprofits need support amid chaos and uncertainty
Advertisement This action has thrown critical systems into existing and legally contracted programs for such things as housing assistance, food security, and health care. Some organizations were ordered to stop providing services immediately, and some will not recover from this disruption. Get Rhode Map A weekday briefing from veteran Rhode Island reporters, focused on the things that matter most in the Ocean State. Enter Email Sign Up These executive actions have been put into place without clarity or justification. Organizations and states have been scrambling to understand what's happening, while continuing to serve the people they proudly support. The minute one thought they had it figured out, it changed again. And while, yes, the memo has been The actions and orders at play ensure the most vulnerable in our society are the ones who suffer. And the effects of these actions will be felt immediately — for all of us. Today, Advertisement These actions affect Rhode Island families you have never met, yet they will also have a ripple effect that will no doubt impact your family and friends. Every dollar that doesn't reach nonprofit programs for the Rhode Islanders who need them translates into added stress for these individuals and their families. It also is a dollar that does not make its way into our state's economy, impacting local business. Some perceive the nonprofit sector and the immense number of services it provides to be not worthy, while the truth is quite the opposite. Our nonprofits are filled with smart and passionate humans… the ones who step up in difficult times, and never back down. They aren't here for the politics, but for humanity. Nonprofit leaders are some of the most creative and nimble businesspeople you will ever meet. Because these broken systems require them to be. I am reminded that United Way of Rhode Island, in its 99-year history, has taken on the tough things and supported our great state every step of the way. This time it is no different. We are unwavering in our vision of a Rhode Island where each individual in every community has equal opportunity for justice and prosperity. Our Alliance for Nonprofit Impact, Rhode Island's nonprofit resource center, is providing up-to-the-minute support for the sector. We are assessing the impact of these changes and helping the organizations continue to serve. Our 211 and POINT helplines are supporting Rhode Islanders as they seek to understand how these changes will affect them. We are connecting them to the resources that exist for them. But we need you and your support. Now. Advertisement We need you to call your congresspeople, and the White House. Tell them to take action. Give to an organization that speaks to you. Volunteer your time. Fred Rogers, better known as Mr. Rogers, said: 'When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.'' This is the time to look for the helpers. This is the time to BE the helpers. Cortney M. Nicolato is the president & CEO of United Way of Rhode Island.
