Resources for Nonprofits

The Community Foundation for Northern Virginia is committed to providing nonprofits in our region access to resources to build organizational capacity and to make connections with other nonprofits. We regularly learn about tools and resources, meet with consultants who can add value to organizations, and make connections among nonprofits for potential collaborations.

Nonprofit Capacity Building

The Community Foundation for Northern Virginia plays a vital role in nonprofit capacity building by providing organizations with the resources, support, and expertise needed to enhance their effectiveness and sustainability. Through grants, technical assistance, and capacity-building programs, we help nonprofits strengthen their leadership, improve operational efficiency, and develop strategies for long-term growth. We also offer networking opportunities and training sessions, fostering collaboration and knowledge-sharing among nonprofits. By investing in the growth of nonprofit organizations, we enable them to better serve our communities, increase their impact, and create lasting change.
