Connected For Change
Connected For Change leverages the collective skills of volunteers and organizations to create solutions for positive social impact. We connect nonprofits in need of capacity-building support with a team of experts who give their time pro bono to tackle the nonprofit’s challenge and, in partnership with the nonprofit, develop tangible solutions and/or recommendations.
Each Connected Day focuses on a specific functional area. The 2024 Connected for Change Days will focus on: HR, Marketing, Finance, and Tech.
Connected For Change is for:
Nonprofit organizations that have a challenge or opportunity in the Connected for Change focus area that can be tackled in a day can apply to participate. Connected For Change will always be free for nonprofits to attend and nonprofits located anywhere are able to attend virtual events. Organizations that are a member of HandsOn Twin Cities are prioritized.
Professionals with expertise that matches the nonprofit’s challenge who are interested in volunteering their time and talent pro bono to social-impact organizations.
