Boosting the Business of Nonprofits


Foundation: Rancho Santa Fe Foundation

"If this is one way to help make their jobs easier and more effective, we are honored to do so," Angie Myer, associate executive director of Nonprofit Solutions, tells the San Diego Business Journal.

That's because the nonprofit consulting firm recently graduated its first group of nonprofit employees employees of the San Diego Humane Societyfrom its new Mobile Hybrid Training Institute (MHTI).

The five-month program aims to cultivate equity gaps and enhance the nonprofit sector and community.

MHTI ensures that nonprofit employees develop critical skills essential for excelling in their roles.

"I love taking the content that I'm learning and applying it specifically to my work in my organization, learning about what my colleagues are experiencing, connecting with them so that we can actually work better together, communicate better together and grow as leaders," Emily Scheerer, operations project manager for the SDHS, tells Myer.

The SDHS cohort also had access to Nonprofit Solutions' Operation Manager Program, a workshop series that helps nonprofit employees build skills critical for successful leadership.

The MHTI was established with the aim of cultivating equity gaps and enhancing the nonprofit sector and community.

The San Diego Business Journal recognized Nonprofit Solutions as one of the top 14 consulting firms in San Diego.
