Nonprofits and Individuals are going through a level of physical and emotional depression over three major costs. Foundations hold trillions and can jump start and create permanent solutions in the three areas. Should it be a right to receive affordable medical treatment, should it be a right to have access to affordable energy, and should it be a right to have access to affordable education? Is yes, whom is responsible to provide that right and how?
- Health Care
- Energy
- Education
Ask foundations to focus on these three areas for your organization. These focuses will reduce huge burdens to your organization, its employees, long term finances and set examples for others to follows. Running the organization on debt is not long term stability.
The reduction of uncontrollable costs requires initiatives that create cost containment and bring costs controls back into the hands of business as their choices. These initiatives will not only help nonprofits but every business and every community.
For individuals going into debt to be able to work seems to be a flaw in the economic structure of the United States. The creation of a diverse workforce in areas where there is not sufficient trained individuals requires sustainability flexible commitment towards education and training.
