Nonprofit Connect

In 2011, the Foundation began offering a series of training workshops to Spartanburg County nonprofits.  Known as Nonprofit Connect, this program was developed to convene local nonprofit staff and board members to provide training opportunities, discuss local and national trends, share organization updates, network, and address the difficult issues facing Spartanburg County’s nonprofit sector.

Participants are able to receive techniques and information that will further assist them in fulfilling their mission, identify possible collaborations, and learn more about specific Foundation activities and services. These training sessions are free and lunch is provided to all attending.

Nonprofit Connect also enables The Foundation to learn more about the nonprofits in the community with regard to their accomplishments, areas for improvement and critical needs.  In turn, The Foundation is able to identify resources and strategies to better assist these nonprofits in building their capacity and furthering their mission.
