We offer a variety of fundraising training. Here, Jeri leads a session on donor styles for Nonprofit Association of Oregon at the Ford Family Foundation in Roseburg, Oregon.

Nonprofit Board Development Philosophy

We believe in the power of purpose. When people who share a passion come together, great things happen. We enter an organization to strategize and encourage their leadership to form strong teams and advance their missions.

Building a robust non-profit board means helping members identify personal strengths and use them for collaboration. This isn’t easy, though. Members’ varied backgrounds are an asset to an organization only if tapped effectively. Rose City Philanthropy delivers carefully selected self-assessments so board members can discuss what each brings to the table.

Self Assessment

We bring a variety of tools that help board members to assess membership, skills, process, and performance.  Our goal is to create collective leadership and fuel joy in service to a great cause.

Fundraising Training

The latest philanthropic research informs our training content. We emphasize strategies that produce measurable results and approach giving with a spirit of generosity and abundance.

A New Level of Nonprofit Board Development

Through our training, support, and facilitation we will help your board become a cohesive, productive, and effective team that weighs in, makes decisions, and follows through. 

We actively serve on nonprofit boards, which uniquely positions us to understand board dynamics and how to bridge differences.
