To get the most out of this program, organizations must come prepared with a specific project, workstream, or organizational challenge they want to tackle over the 18 months with operational support. 

Potential Area(s) of Support: 

  • Financial strategy and planning
  • Fundraising, development and donor engagement strategy
  • Cost structure analysis
  • Program development or expansion
  • Corporate partnership strategy 
  • New location or geographic expansion
  • RFP support/capital planning
  • Strategic planning
  • Board engagement

  • Have clear decision-making authority and/or strong backing from the Executive Director or CEO
  • Be directly involved in the project or challenge the organization is addressing
  • Be able to commit time, energy, and focus to move the work forward

There will also be opportunities to include additional staff members in operational projects, as needed, to ensure the right voices and expertise are present. 

Who this might include: Executive Director and Finance Director, Business Development Manager and Operations Lead, or Marketing Manager and Development Director, depending on the nature of your project.
