Here's what's new, happening, and what we're barking about at Three Dog Consulting!

The West Virginia Nonprofit Association (WVNPA) will offer one-day workshops on July 17 (Martinsburg, WV) and July 18 (Flatwoods, WV) on Nonprofit Lifecycles™ to strengthen your organizational capacity in practical ways together with succession planning to ensure organizations can remain strong and viable during those inevitable transitions.  Attendees will learn about various Lifecycle stages and have an opportunity to analyze their own organization's Lifecycle... particularly in the areas of management/staff, governance, financial resources, and administrative systems.  Strategies & tactics for effective succession planning and the relationship to an organization's Lifecycle stage will also be provided.  Each workshop will be facilitated by our own Senior Consultant, Maria Fibiger, who is a Nonprofit Lifecycles Institute (NLI) Certified Capacity Consultant.

After the tremendous success of the inaugural POWER (People & Organizations With Energy and Resilience) and POWER 2, the Gifford Foundation is providing further support to start-up and grassroots organizations via POWER 3.  This innovative year-long program aims to increase the strength and operating capacity of four select organizations, and provides each with investment funds and a trained consultant to help boost their capacity.  POWER 3 is being led by our Senior Consultant, Maria Fibiger, and includes the following worthy Central NY organizations:  FOCUS (Firefighters of Color United In Syracuse), North Side Learning Center, PGR Foundation, Inc., and Purpose Farm.  Other consultants bringing their talents to the POWER initiative include:  Angela Douglas, Heidi Holtz, Lisa Sears, and Patty Weisse.  The POWER 3 initiative ends in September 2019... stay tuned for a final progress report on this remarkable program based upon the Nonprofit Lifecycles^TM model, and how it's making a positive difference for CNY community organizations!
