Program details

Nonprofits are an integral part of the Cary community. When nonprofit organizations have a strong foundation and manage themselves well, they can focus more wholly on the services and support they bring to Cary residents. In addition to Cary’s ongoing financial support of many organizations through grants, Cary knows it must equip nonprofits with best practices to empower them to best serve the people of Cary. In fact, providing capacity building opportunities for nonprofits is a key initiative of the Cary Housing Plan.

Therefore, Cary has partnered with the North Carolina Center for Nonprofits to create the first Cary Nonprofit Capacity Building Program. This program will provide Cary nonprofits with scholarships to the Center’s Nonprofit Management Institute for the Spring of 2023. The Institute enables a virtual learning cohort of nonprofit executives, managers, and board leaders to assess their organizations’ management practices, identify successes and challenges, build capacity where there are gaps, and work towards long-term sustainability.
