At times a donor wants to bring more than financial
resources to a nonprofit. When a donor shares expertise with
a nonprofit, it creates a partnership that is strong and dynamic
for both parties. Calvin Edwards & Company is skilled
at finding the needs a nonprofit has that are not on the
books. Although financial resources are almost always helpful,
usually they are not the only pressing issue for an organization.
Many nonprofits, like most organizations, have
significant needs which require outside expertise or
assistance, yet they do their best to keep these limitations
out of public view. Our experience with many nonprofits over
the years has given us a unique basis of comparison from which to understand
and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of an organization.
From there we can help donors offer assistance.
By helping the donor see how they can tailor their gift,
their skill, or their expertise to the nonprofit, we can
help build a partnership that engages the donor and builds
a better nonprofit.
