So much happening around town

THANK YOU for your support of COSA. You are a valuable member of a diverse group of nonprofits. Your membership contributes to greater networking opportunities and stronger partnerships for all.

For more than 20 years, COSA has had a tiered dues structure that ranged from $25 for individuals to $750 for the largest nonprofits. While these dues have remained the same for two decades, COSA has responded to our membership with free antiracism training, a more diverse Board, an improved website, monthly programming, and our JEDI work for justice and equity.

In order to remain responsive to our membership's needs and continue to offer updated services, the COSA Board has approved a revised and simplified structure for membership dues. Individual memberships will remain at $25 and there will be slight increases for organizations. All of the details are listed in our membership form online HERE.

We invite you to join COSA for the 2022-2023 season and be part of a network that supports nonprofit excellence with connections, information, and training.

With gratitude,

The COSA Board of Directors

COVID Health Data Support

When the Women’s Fund of Western Massachusetts (WFWM) wanted a greater understanding of the impact of COVID-19 on women and non-binary people in Hampden County to support the Greater Springfield Women’s Economic Security Hub, they turned to the Public Health Institute of Western Massachusetts.

As part of their technical assistance, the Public Health Institute worked with WFWM to create an infographic using CCIS data about the pandemic’s economic impact. To learn more about how to request data and create similar products for your organization, please contact the Public Health Institute HERE.
