Our Community Matters (monthly*)
The free monthly e-newsletter, produced by the Institute of Community Directors Australia (ICDA), contains essential capacity-building resources for not-for-profit leaders including expert advice, help sheets and news to help you be a better community leader. Issues cover grants, fundraising and finances, policies, governance, the law, insurance, marketing, research, trends, and every other issue affecting Australia's 600,000 not-for-profits.
Contact service@ourcommunity.com.au for submissions and inquires about potential content reaching hundreds of thousands of NFP leaders.
The newsletter also supplants Community Directors Intelligence, the previous newsletter for NFP board members, but back copies of that publication are still available to ICDA members. Click here for past editions of Our Community Matters and Community Directors Intelligence, as well as more information.

Subscribe for as little as $125/month for EasyGrants and $350 for BusiGrants. Click here to learn more and to see a sample.
