Navigating Nonprofit Challenges
The State of the Sector
It’s no surprise to anyone in the nonprofit sector of the constant change and never-ending demand experienced daily. Things like working with limited resources, contracts going unfulfilled, navigating a workforce shortage, and too many more to name. According to the National Council of Nonprofits in a 2023 report, nonprofits across the sector were surveyed and discovered that 3 out of 4 nonprofits reported job vacancies. Without the proper staffing to carry out their strategic plans, staff always end up taking more on their plates and managers struggle with retention. At the same time, underserved communities miss out on vital services.
Why We Got Started
After spending a combined 20 years working in communities that mirror our own, we wanted to find ways to use our knowledge to deepen our impact. By working across both nonprofit programs and development, we gained the expertise to scale initiatives to meet community needs while keeping key stakeholders engaged.. From managing a citywide program expansion to raising over a million dollars through fundraising campaigns, we navigated countless hurdles that still affect nonprofits both large and small.
