The Diabetes Hands Foundation was Model-C fiscally sponsored project of Community Initiatives for a number of months, during our 2009-2010 Fiscal Year. The service and value we received from the CI team was amazing! Since we first learned about them, I have done my best to promote their great work for Bay Area-based nonprofit projects, since more people need to know about this way to do good without having to be a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
two ways: through a project that we received a grant for, which was designated to be given to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit; and through our fundraising campaign in September 2009.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
make their work known to as many people as possible. What they can do for groups seeking to help others, thinking that the only way is to become a 501(c)(3) could result in thousands of hours and dollars saved and more people getting helped sooner.
More feedback...
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
The people: they are most personable AND knowledgeable, making working with them a joy and a great experience.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
Phenomenal!!! From Prudy who rocks as an Office Manager to Ani who is amazing on-boarding and helping new projects learn the ropes all the way to Melanie, the CEO!
Ways to make it better...
I had known about them before we had gone through all the work we went to become a 501(c)(3). :)
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
Marketing themselves more to the sector.
