First NonprofitPANO Benefits

PANO has partnered with First Nonprofit (FNP) since 1998, helping more than 300 Pennsylvania nonprofits save over $37 million dollars! Last year nonprofits saved an average of 36%. First Nonprofit offers PANO members two unemployment savings programs to help save you money on your State Unemployment Insurance (SUI) costs. Instead of paying the SUI tax, 501(c)(3) organizations can enroll into one of FNP’s programs and elect to reimburse the state for validated claims paid to former employees, dollar for dollar (save as much as 60%). PANO members receive a 20% discount on the one-time enrollment fee. Services include: unemployment claims administration, training opportunities on employer responsibilities and risk mitigation and a free cost-savings evaluation.

If your organization is a 501(c)(3) with at least 10 employees, one of these programs may save you money. To find out how much your agency can save each year, fill out this free evaluation application from FNP and email it back to .mwhittey@firstnonprofit.com.
