The Nonprofit Challenge
A Businesslike Approach To The Nonprofit Mission
From Bronx, NY to Roxbury, MA, Next Street is helping nonprofits tell their stories more effectively and deploy digital platforms that lighten the load on professional staff while building stronger ties to donors as well as clients.
- Next Street is helping a global nonprofit build a more diverse workforce here at home, aligning its recruiting with its social mission.
- A Next Street website helped a children’s chorus triple site visitors in the first 3 months. By putting rehearsal schedules and other processes online, the new site made the organization more efficient as well as more visible.
- Next Street is helping an operator of community access TV channels improve its technology and training programs to keep up with rapid change in the media world.
- Next Street helped the leading authority on inner city economies reimagine its role and align its activities and messages around the needs of its many constituencies: policy makers, civic organizations, corporate partners, capital providers and business owners.
What is the future you want for your organization?
Next Street transforms what is possible for today’s increasingly-strapped nonprofit organizations.
We can help them strengthen their organizations, deepen connections with the communities they serve, and operate more effectively so they can take on new challenges.
Next Street clients benefit from sophisticated capabilities that few nonprofits have the resources to maintain in house:
Full-time organizational development professionals
Experts in operational analysis and strategic planning
Specialists in communications and marketing
An extensive network of leaders in government, business, philanthropy and the arts
Next Street’s nonprofit clients range from local children’s programs to a global organization that tackles some of the world’s most stubborn issues. Many have been referred to us by funding organizations who see opportunities that can’t be realized by funding alone.
We help our nonprofit clients create new capabilities – and, most importantly today, the capability to innovate.
The Next Street team typically works with executive directors over time, helping them reach more people, enhance services, and attract the volunteers and the donations they need to do their work. Behind the scenes, we help them move routine processes online to lighten the load on professional staff.
