Nonprofit Capacity-Building Services

The Jericho Road Project's Nonprofit Capacity-Building Services program provides free technical assistance to increase the capacity of nonprofit organizations and through them, the communities and cities they serve. Through its diverse offerings of no-cost professional services, Nonprofit Capacity-Building Services allows nonprofits to realize goals they otherwise could not afford and, at times, inspires organizations to dream of, and then realize, new goals. The range of services is diverse and includes, but is not limited to, professional and consulting services, including:

-Organizational assessment
-Board assessment and development
-Strategic planning
-Professional coaching services
-Fund-raising
-Revenue generation
-Editing and grant writing
-Marketing strategy
-Communications and public relations
-Human-resources management
-Operations management
-Technology infrastructure assessment
-Web-site development
-Accounting systems
-Architectual services


A typical Jericho Road engagement involves the services of one or two volunteers for one to three months and are scaled to the size, needs and carrying capacity of our small to mid size non profit clients; for general advice, a few hours may be all that's needed. Some projects last much longer than three months, such as larger initiatives in which a project manager, a team of volunteers, and community residents work together.

"We came up with a three-stage plan to build up the services of the CMAA. Don and the Jericho team then provided us with a very comprehensive organizational assessment... I think we are now on our way!"
