Strengthening Organizations

We don't grant wishes. We grant power and knowledge (along with some money).

We strengthen non-profit organizations through hands-on training and a powerful circle of relationships. We help them assess their strengths and weaknesses, and in the process they realize how they can become more effective. They become part of a community, attending Foundation-sponsored trainings on how to raise money, how to organize their communities, how to talk to the media. We show up and share our knowledge of best practices; we mentor through personal relationships, as well as through technical assistance; skill-building, participation in the Women’s Policy Institute; movement-building retreats; learning cohorts.
