A national expert on enterprise development will share strategies for sustainability in the changing funding environment at the HANO annual meeting, 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. on Friday Dec. 5 at the Pacific Club, 1451 Queen Emma St., Honolulu. This event is sponsored by ING Direct and the Arc of Hilo.
Nonprofits interested in the new federal funding landscape for nonprofits under the Obama Administration -- HANO members and non-members alike -- are invited to attend to hear Irvin Henderson, principal of Henderson and Company, discuss the new paradigm and describe tools and techniques for navigating the increasingly competitive environment.

Henderson specializes in community development, education and training in finance, collaboration, project design and strategic planning. He has worked with nonprofits across the nation, including Hawaii, on affordable housing and commercial, industrial and enterprise development projects. "Irvin did some consulting work for the Arc of Hilo recently," says Mike Gleason, President and CEO of Arc of Hilo and HANO board member.
