Message from the Board
  
I believe it was the early 90s when I started volunteering for NYSAE. The first committee I ever joined was the education committee. At that time I had about 5 years of experience in association management and I was passionate about developing programs and content for NYSAE  that would also help me build my professional skills as well as guide me in training my colleagues at Kellen. It was such a rewarding experience for me.

Article Spotlight
You’re walking down the street, when a man in a trench coat approaches.  In a semi-socially distant way, he whispers to you, “Pssst… Hey, buddy, wanna buy some data?  New data breach. Got some fresh names. Credit card data, too.”  No, of course, it doesn’t happen that way, but your data can get out there. Your donor data is the lifeblood of your organization.  You can’t afford not to secure it.
Synergy Awards
The NYSAE Synergy Awards Committee just released its Call for Entries for the 2021 Synergy Awards program. The 2020 category, Digital Excellence, has now been revised to Excellence in MarCom. For many years the association has honored organizations for excellence in design, architecture, impact and innovation related to digital presence (website). The new MarCom award will continue to accept website entries but now it has expanded to accept entries in any category of marketing and communications, including print media, strategic communications, audio/video, digital media (websites), or a MarCom campaign (three or more pieces with a common theme). Nominate an organization for a MarCom award here.

Q.  We have a conference contracted and planned for March of 2021. During normal times, we’d expect about 300 attendees. It’s out of New York City but our members are already communicating about fear of travelling and what it’s going to be like in 6 months. Do you think we can begin postponement talks this early? I know that our volunteer leaders would sure be happy to know now that they’re planning for a virtual event.
News for New York Associations
Over the past 25 weeks, The Actors Fund has distributed more than $15,752,140 to 13,141 people through its own funds and those of its 13 partners. Recently The Actors Fund completed the first six-week cycle of the Support Group for Entertainment Professionals. This group was designed for clients seeking connection and coping strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic.
As the pandemic hit, our association, like so many others, knew we had to make some changes to help our members and mitigate any loses from in-person events. Strategically, the focus for the Manufacturers Association for Plastics Processors (MAPP) – a trade organization - is to connect industry leaders and create an unparalleled community focused on networking and sharing. Internally, our team is strong is facilitation and in bringing people together and creating a space for networking and sharing. To that end, we started POWERHOUSE: MAPP Executives Group in the span of one month.

The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) closed for new loans on August 8, 2020, though a renewal is currently being negotiated in Congress.1 Regardless of the future of new loans, as PPP borrowers continue through the lifecycle of the program by preparing to apply for loan forgiveness, the Small Business Administration (SBA) has continued to issue important new regulations and guidance that will impact their forgiveness analysis. We summarize below some of these important new developments.

The COVID-19 pandemic is stressful. It’s been six months and many of us are still feeling fear, anxiety and overwhelmed. Our co-workers can feel it and our families are living it with us. Many of us have moved temporarily out of the city. Has that helped? Wherever we’re working, it’s in isolation and public health actions such as social distancing can make us feel lonely. Coping with stress in a healthy way will make you, your colleagues, the people you care about, and your community stronger. Lets's discuss this and more We will discuss all this and more with Richard Beck, LCSW, BCD, CGP, FAGPA our SME.
