Event Details

Do the nonprofits you support have what they need to thrive and produce results?

Supporting capacity building initiatives, such as leadership development, evaluation and learning, strategy development or fund development, helps nonprofits become more resilient and deliver on their missions over the long haul. However, it’s also important for grantmakers to truly understand the specific needs of their grantees and provide the type of support that’s truly needed.

This dynamic and comprehensive workshop will tackle the essential questions that drive the design of effective capacity building support. Developed with information and insights gathered over many years of working with grantmakers on this topic, A New Vision for Comprehensive Capacity Building takes participants on a deep dive into understanding what matters most when it comes to building a successful capacity building program.

In this session presented by GEO’s Amy Shields, program manager, and Stephanie Chan, program specialist, we’ll tackle the essential issues that drive the design of effective capacity building support. Some of the things we’ll experience together include:

  • the benefits of contextual, continuous, and collective capacity support;
  • examples of capacity building work underway in your region;
  • peer sharing about successes and challenges; and
  • how to learn from and continually improve capacity building support.

Supporting capacity building is one of the most important things grantmakers can do to accelerate and broaden our impact on grantees and communities. Join us for this highly interactive workshop to learn what it truly takes to build a capacity building program that supports nonprofit success.
