Your Nonprofit Mission Statement: You get it, but do potential funders get it?
Bring your vision statement and mission statement to life!
Because of our uncertain economy and other worldly trends, many community needs have changed or intensified. But many organizations are stuck with mission statements that are unclear or haven't kept pace with the new realities. As a result, they lose out on funding opportunities.
What is The Mission Factory?
A non profit mission statement ought to be more than a series of contrived buzzwords threaded together. Instead, the mission statement’s purpose is to express your organization’s reason for being to your staff, board, and members of the community. It’s also a decision-making tool.
What's more, nowadays, donors are giving to fewer organizations and are much more selective as a result of the economic slowdown.
Therefore, your mission statement must be clear, powerful, and help explain your organization’s relevance to potential funders. That's why the time you and your team spend on developing or revising your mission statement is a worthy investment.
The Mission Factory takes you and your team through the process of developing a new mission statement or ensures that your current mission statement is right for your organization.
The process also helps you match your mission statement with the needs of your constituents today.
We can also help you create a vision statement, a values statement, and an 'elevator pitch' that summarizes and communicates your organization's key messages.
