As leaders, we are all struggling to define priorities, make hard decisions and see the future of our organizations. We are in this with you, dealing with these circumstances with our clients and in our own organization.
The Charitable Advisors team is here to help with our consulting team and to share information across and within the community.
Here are six ways we can help you and your organization weather the storm:
1)
We can help your HR or volunteer efforts
-
While you and your leadership team are fighting fires, you may be delaying critical hires or volunteer screening. Our recruiting team at Charitable Advisors is available to help you keep important hiring efforts moving forward. We are accustomed to working by phone and Zoom.
- Do you want to review your best applicants, not piles of resumes?
- Are business layoffs creating a flood of new applicants that you can’t keep up with?
- Are you even too busy to get that critical position posted?
- Are your volunteer needs urgent, but you don’t have the capacity to quickly contact and screen people as they apply?
Traditionally, our searches fill Central Indiana nonprofit ED/CEO leadership roles but for the next several months, we are broadening our focus to assist you with screening and hiring for the positions you need most right now – leadership, program, administrative, fundraising, volunteer.
2)
Interim staffing needs
– we anticipate that there will be some talented nonprofit professionals who are furloughed during these tough times. If you anticipate a need for an experienced professional to assist with a special project or fill in a key role, let us know at:

3)
Community connecting
–
We know that peer support is important in these times and nonprofit leaders need to connect with each other. If you are part of an informal peer group and open to more participants, please let us know. If you would like to be connected to an informal peer group, let us know.

oard discussions/board development
– Every nonprofit is going through significant adjustments right now. You may need a facilitator to support your board to frame and make some tough decisions or develop contingency plans. For others, your board members might be going stir crazy and would be open to board training or board development discussions, so you are better positioned for the future.
5)
Developing major donor strategies
– If you have an established donor base that is giving at least $100,000 each year, this may be the perfect time for our Fundraising Report Card® review and strategy sessions. For just $2,500, T.J. McGovern will run an analysis of your anonymized donor data and then lead strategy discussions with the staff, then the board.
