Catalyst Collective
Catalyst Collective is a consultancy focused on curating marketing, development, and technology services to empower nonprofits. They are a collaborative community of passionate leaders and organizations that share resources and services to help nonprofits.
They understand that lack of capacity is a limiting factor for many nonprofits. Not having dedicated resources for essential functions like technology, marketing, and website maintenance is not only frustrating, but it hurts their ability to share their story, raise much-needed funds, and operate effectively. Through a partner network of experts, nonprofits like yours get access to mission-critical resources at affordable rates.
But Catalyst goes one step further. A Catalyst Collective Project Manager coordinates projects for the client, allowing them to focus on delivering their mission to the people they serve.
Their services provide the nonprofit advantage of reducing costs and building capacity.
