Member Support

We support the people who support their communities. 

We understand the unique challenges of volunteer-led organizations, and we are uniquely positioned to help other non-profits thrive.

Whether you’re looking for guidance, resources, templates, training, education, opportunities to connect with peers, or support with a specific challenge, our team is here to help. We’ll work with you to understand your needs and connect you with the right tools, knowledge, and support to help your community thrive.

One-on-one support

Our members can reach out for one-on-one support when questions or challenges come up in their community. Whether you’re working through an issue, planning a new initiative, or looking for guidance on a project, our team is here to help. We can connect you with practical information, resources, and advice to help you move forward.

We can support you with:

  • Non-Profit Governance
  • Financial Literacy
  • Urban Planning
  • Community Engagement
  • Finding Grants & Funding Opportunities

Fed On the Move

Whether you’re onboarding several new volunteers, rebuilding after a period of transition, or navigating a complex issue, a private workshop can help build confidence and create a shared understanding among your team.

Our workshop facilitators can deliver practical, engaging learning opportunities directly in your community.
