The Institute for Not-for-Profit Management (INM), part of Columbia Business School Executive Education will provide scholarships to the four organizations honored by the 2008 New York Times Company's Nonprofit Excellence Awards, announced June 24, 2008.

For the second consecutive year, the scholarships granted to the winning organizations can be used for any INM program in management or leadership.

This year's winning organizations, Community Health Action of Staten Island, Harlem RBI, Inc., Ifetayo Cultural Arts, located in Brooklyn, and the Institute for Family Health, which serves the greater New York area, will each be able to send an executive manager to participate in one of the 2008-2009 INM programs.

The scholarships are in addition to the cash awards granted by the New York Times.

"We are proud to join the New York Times and the other Nonprofit Excellence Awards supporters in honoring these outstanding organizations.

Each awardee has demonstrated exemplary leadership within the nonprofit sector in New York City," says INM director Francine Lynch.

Columbia's nondegree open enrollment programs address individual development needs in leadership and strategy, marketing, and finance, providing executives with an understanding of powerful new academic approaches and their application to achieve results.

We provide direct, immediate access to mainstream national media for 600 colleges, universities, medical centers, public-policy groups and other leading nonprofit organizations.
