Arlington Life Shelter Embarks on a Development Plan Refresh with ToolBox Grant Funds

Arlington Life Shelter Embarks on a Development Plan Refresh with ToolBox Grant Funds

We first worked for Arlington Life Shelter (ALS) in 2012 after responding to an RFP for fundraising/marketing consulting made possible by a North Texas Community Foundation (NTCF) Toolbox grant. That work was in part, to help get ALS ready for a pending capital campaign and we were so pleased to hear recently from the former ED about some results of that work together, “You were able to provide a detailed, step-by-step plan that staff and board members with passion, but little fundraising experience, could easily follow. Thanks to your direction, ALS was able to increase individual giving from 7% to 66% while tripling our budget.”

2022-2023 Marks Twelve Years of Work Together with HEB ISD Education Foundation

HEB ISD Education Foundation board leadership has teamed with Project Partners for what will be a twelfth year of work together. This partnership all started in 2011 with a referral by our friend, Bill Lynch (now retired VP of Public Policy at the Arlington Chamber) to the executive director search committee, willing to consider a contracted solution. This proven model works so well for our clients, as we require no training, supervision, office space, equipment, or employee red tape – just an opportunity to join your team and get to work! Project Partners’ support to the 35+ member volunteer board of directors includes strategic planning, community relations and communications, fundraising, events management, program development, board and committee engagement, and nonprofit administration.

If your cause needs a voice and a hands-on project management team, you’ve come to a good place
