Support nonprofits’ capacity building

Bonterra’s Jumpstart program a tech-enabled capacity building program that allows grantmakers to strengthen nonprofit resilience and accelerate their community impact. The yearlong program provides nonprofits with one-on-one personal fundraising coaching and fundraising software, helping them raise more money, save time, and build long-term sustainability.

We partner with foundations and grantmakers who are committed to building more equitable communities by supporting the capacity building needs and financial resilience of nonprofits.

Before formalizing a partnership, our team works with foundations and grantmakers to conduct a nonprofit needs assessment to identify each organization’s unique strengths and areas for improvement, which allows us to tailor the program to their specific needs.

Bonterra will co-invest alongside the partnering foundations and grantmakers to provide funding for the Jumpstart program and identify and recommend nonprofit organizations to participate in the program. Partners will receive regular updates on the progress of their grantees and see measurable outcomes from their grantees, including increased revenue and improved fundraising capacity.

At the start of the program, nonprofits can choose from a pool of experienced coaches with an average of 19 years of fundraising expertise. By harnessing the collective knowledge of our experienced coaches, Jumpstart meets nonprofits where they are, working together to transform their development office.
