Collaborating with another nonprofit may be just what your organization needs to push it to the next level. But how do you team up effectively? First, let’s talk about why nonprofits team up in the first place.

As an essential aspect of running a nonprofit, fundraising can make or break an organization. One of the most tried and true methods for raising vital funds are fundraising events. From dinners, auctions, galas, golf tournaments, and more, it would seem that the only limit on a fundraising event is an organization’s imagination. Although these events can take many forms, it is only through proper planning and preparation that a nonprofit funding event can be effective. That being said, there are a number of useful tips on how to plan effective fundraising events.

You’ve probably heard the saying “teamwork makes the dream work” or “the more the merrier.” In the nonprofit world, these cliche sayings actually ring true. Bringing on new collaborations and fresh ideas only positively impacts your nonprofit. Oftentimes, these are with corporations or local businesses, but they can also form between multiple nonprofits. When done right, collaborations allow for increased exposure and an entirely new audience.

Soliciting regulations can fall into a gray area for many nonprofits; navigating these rules can be tricky, and they can easily change without prior notice.

Organizations also need a state-registered status to receive various grants.
