Program areas at Cause Effective
Consulting - last year we counseled 247 nonprofits through customized board trainings, intensive coaching or year-long fundraising residencies. Over 750 nonprofit leaders were inspired and influenced by Cause Effective's coaching and training to diversify revenue and address risks to organizational resilience.
Workshops - last year we led over 18 workshops and trainings designed to elevate nonprofit leadership's knowledge and skills in board governance and fundraising, made possible by collaborations with 17 funders and other partners.publications - we provide thought leadership on a sectoral level on issues pertaining to fundraising and governance, especially strategic concerns relating to equity, access, and ensuring that all have their rightful seat at the table. In 2019 Cause Effective released "money, power and race: the lived experience of fundraisers of color" - a searingly honest narrative uncovering the challenges faced by fundraisers of color across u.s. nonprofits of all sizes. Which is still provoking sectoral conversations today.
