Sixty & Better Adapting to Change Through Strategic Planning

The pandemic caused a huge shift in Sixty & Better’s program of work, a program of work that had helped define this organization’s mission for more than fifty years.  With that, Sixty & Better’s leadership is adapting through a strategic planning process made possible by a Toolbox grant from the North Texas Community Foundation (NTCF). 

Our work together will redefine the organization’s mission, the programming to achieve that mission, and the ensuing fundraising, communications/community engagement, board leadership, and administrative support necessary for success. 

We are pleased to return to Sixty & Better (formerly Senior Citizens Services of Greater Tarrant County) for this fourth assignment, providing the new leadership team both historical data based on prior work before and after their rebranding, and the opportunity to focus on the plan for continued success in serving specific needs of older adults in our community. 

We are proud to serve quite often as a partner for good through executive staff and board leadership transitions!

Lucky #13 it is!

Lucky #13 it is! 

 June 1 marked the beginning of a thirteenth year of work together with the HEB ISD Education Foundation, and we are proud to be teaming again with this thriving nonprofit whose sole mission is to support HEB ISD’s excellence in education.  We’ve had the pleasure to serve education foundations in Irving, Fort Worth, Plano, Birdville, Marble Falls, and Arlington, but few compare with the outstanding board, community, donor, and district engagement found within the HEB ISD Education Foundation. 

 Through more than a decade of work together, Project Partners has helped provide consistent results through three superintendents, six board chairs, and now thirteen volunteer boards of directors.  How lucky are we? 

PROJECT PARTNERS’ WORK EXPANDING TO TCC SOUTH AND TCC SOUTHEAST

After a similar assignment for Tarrant County College (TCC) Northeast, Project Partners will be working with campus leaders at Tarrant County College (TCC) South and Tarrant County College (TCC) Southeast to provide consulting for their recognized IDD (Intellectual or Development Disabilities) Programs.   Always seeking to best meet the needs of their communities, they have asked us to reach out to stakeholder groups to collect and compile information on current program delivery, liken to best practices and state standards, and provide program review findings for ongoing strategic planning and continuous improvement. 

With a specialty in education and workforce development, we find it a real privilege to continue to serve TCC, and are also very appreciative of the collaborative work over more than two decades. 

Happy New Year!

As we begin this 29th year of business, we thank you for your business, your referrals, your collaboration, your support, and your friendship.   We are so very grateful to keep our dream jobs of advancing community causes with you.  Happy New Year!

Operation Progress Fort Worth to Set Strategic Direction

Operation Progress Fort Worth (OPFW) empowers underserved youth to become educated, ethical, and productive adults who reach their full potential and positively contribute to society.   Their model, replicated from Operation Progress LA, partners with the Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD) and supports their Scholars from 3rd grade to college and/or career.  

A recipient of a Funding to Advance Racial Equity (FARE) grant from the North Texas Community Foundation (NTCF), OPFW Executive Director, Dr. Myeshia Smith, and her dedicated board will build on their success to date as we help them establish their first official strategic plan, with a special emphasis on the focus area of fundraising.    

Project Partners was founded in 1995 on Project C3: Classrooms-Corporations-Community and collaborative community programs serving children, youth, and families remain among our favorite causes to advance. It’s an honor to support Operation Progress Fort Worth.
