What they're saying

Shannon Shea

Found/CEO | Senior health services nonprofit

My NPO Centric Membership paid for itself within 2 months! We raised more money using the resources and advice from NPO Centric than we have in the entire history of our nonprofit. I love that I can find targeted resources and information quickly, and I can also get information from my peers and nonprofit professionals in the private Facebook group. I highly recommend joining NPO Centric!  You won't regret it.

Elaine Rogers

CEO/Executive Director | Children's literacy nonprofit

Being a CEO can be a lonely job. But since becoming a Member, I’ve never been on my own. The support has been one of the most valuable aspects of my membership! Not only have I received fantastic advice and resources, but I am constantly in touch with other members who understand the struggles of running a nonprofit and can celebrate the wins with me.

Cynthia Moses, M.Ed, PCET

Founder/Director | Children with learning disabilities​nonprofit

This is my 30th year with Integrated Learning Institute. And let me tell you, after 30 years, we still need help sometimes. The good news is, although we don't know everything, we do know who does. So we call on NPO Centric to help us with resources we'd have no other way of finding, and they know always, always where to direct me.

Jenai Morhead

Consultant/Educator | Nonprofit entrepreneurship and development

One of the things that I love is to see the mission come to fruition and also to help them to serve their clients and also to make new friends. I really appreciate that part. That's the fun part too!

Alfred Ricci

Executive Director | First Responder Resilience

I love that I can get in person training AND learn so much online in the member portal. It's exciting that we get new content every week. I also love the connections I make with other NPO Centric members.

Irene Rodriguez

I have learned so much working with NPO Centric. Not only are they available to help me with whatever I need, the staff is always so supportive! Working with them has given me so much more confidence. It is a no-brainer to join NPO Centric.

Linda Barrack

NPO Centric is a great tool for all nonprofits! I wish it would have been around when I started in this career! It would have been so much easier.

I love being a consultant for NPO Centric. It is such a great organization. One of things I love the most is to see a nonprofit's mission come to fruition and also to help them serve their clients. I also love making new friends in my work with NPO Centric--I really appreciate that part--It is the fun part, too!

Alfred Ricci

Executive Director | First Responder Resilience

I love that NPO Centric offers online AND in-person training. I was lucky enough to live in the Palm Springs area, and while I was there, I was able to take a lot of their workshops and work with professional consultants who helped me launch my nonprofit the right way. I moved out of the area, but I can still get access to excellent resources with the digital membership.

We find ourselves in an era of growing demand and shrinking government resources, and still, the community needs nonprofits to do more with less. NPO Centric bridges that gap so that you can focus on your purpose and continue making an impact.

Our strategy for nonprofits

Capacity Building

Capacity building is essential to a nonprofit's health and longevity.  It is the process of developing an organization's strength and sustainability. Capacity building enables you to focus on your mission — not just on survival.

Partnerships & Collaboration

Partnerships and collaboration help nonprofits achieve greater impact than any organization could generate on its own. Nonprofits working together can increase their influence, scale up their efforts, and even gain additional funding.

Systems & Processes

Having systems and processes in place allows nonprofits to accomplish goals consistently, in a repeatable and understandable way. At NPO Centric, we are here to help you build reliable, sustainable systems and processes that will guide you on your path to success.

Sustainability

Creating long-term nonprofit sustainability can be challenging. At NPO Centric, we help you think strategically about your decision-making processes and how you analyze and adjust outcomes to have a much higher chance of creating long-term success and sustainability.
