COLLABORATION
TOGETHER, WE’LL BUILD SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
We approach collaboration as one of co-creation and partnership. We bring our skills, experiences and a willingness to learn. Nonprofit leaders bring professional expertise about their specific industry and a willingness to fully engage in the process. Together, we define consulting projects for building capacity and amplifying impact. With a community-centered, equity focused and anti-racism lens, we partner with promising nonprofits toward ensuring that every young person’s future unfolds uncompromised by systemic injustice.
