Do you want a mentor to help you develop a solid foundation for your new nonprofit?
I'm LaCharla Figgs, and I want to use my nearly 30 years of nonprofit leadership and organization development experience to help you with the nuts and bolts of establishing a new organization, training your board of directors, and boosting your leadership skills.
What Is The Nonprofit Founders Circle?
The Founders Circle is an ongoing group education, coaching, and implementation program designed to support you and your nonprofit as your begin operating.
You'll have access to classes that give you instruction, sample documents, Q&A, and group coaching. And this is not theory. You can put the information to work to build a solid operation.
The program is also flexible. Join on a month-by-month basis with no long-term commitment. Or, if you want to stay and receive ongoing help with emerging issues, The Nonprofit Founders Circle is here for that, too.
