All nonprofit organizations need help from time to time in order to function more effectively and efficiently. This is especially true of new or emerging nonprofit organizations or those with smaller budgets.
The Denver Foundation has set aside funds specifically to provide grants for nonprofit organizations to get this kind of help, usually called "technical assistance." Technical Assistance (TA) can be many things, and what is most important is that TA helps the staff and/or board of the organization learn something new and increase its capacity to lead, manage and direct the organization.
Examples of TA include obtaining training on a specific topic, such as marketing, volunteer management, financial management or fundraising; hiring a facilitator for a board retreat; or working with a consultant to develop a fundraising plan or a strategic plan for the organization.
TA grants are available to organizations that meet the following criteria:
- Organizations that meet the basic eligibility criteria for The Denver Foundation's Community Grants Program and are current or former grantees of the Foundation's Community Grants Program. Under certain conditions, an organization that has been declined by the Community Grants Program may be eligible to apply.
- Organizations with budgets of $500,000 or less
