Core Values

Healthy nonprofits are critical components of our democratic society, and that internally stable, effective nonprofit organizations are essential to achieving a high quality of life in Flint and Genesee County.

Building the long-term capacity of key organizations in the local nonprofit sector is a worthy philanthropic investment that will have a positive, long-term impact on the community.

Building capacity in people and organizations is most effective when it begins by identifying existing strengths, creating a realistic plan for a preferred future, and then taking the first steps on that journey.

Long-term sustainability requires a collaborative relationship between nonprofit organizations, funders and consultants, because together we can accomplish what each group cannot do alone.
