A double dissolution federal election gives added importance to this year’s May 3 budget. Less than 24 hours after the treasurer brings down this critical budget, Pro Bono Australia will bring you an Executive Webinar that features a three-person panel of experts from the community, philanthropy and social welfare sectors who will dissect the budget and what it means for the Not for Profit sector and you.
