Every non-profit organization must be able to engage the community and at the very least the population it aims to serve. This can be done effectively if the proper plan is in place.

Non-profit Organizations, although tax-exempt, are still businesses in need of consistent revenue. Thus there are key elements that must be considered to maintain revenue and seek additional sources of income. The first is understanding how to seek new opportunities through programming, services, grants, in-kind donations, or unrelated business. The second is to ensure the organization is not dependent on one source of revenue but instead has a diversified revenue flow. Crown Connection seeks to assist clients in diversifying their revenue streams while ensuring current streams of revenue are sustainably developed and managed.

Crown Connections aim to assist organizations by researching and assessing possible opportunities. Thereafter, in collaboration with your non-profit organization, we will write, complete, and submit grant applications that are most appropriate and feasible for the client.
