This blog is guest written by Kadi Davis with the Center for Nonprofit Excellence.

From governance, leadership, management and finance to robust programs, data-driven evaluation and collaboration, the Center for Nonprofit Excellence (CNE) invests in nonprofits and the people who power them – board, staff and volunteers. To do that, CNE provides tools, training, consulting, coaching, resources and technical assistance to help nonprofits thrive, creating strong leaders, effective managers and healthy collaborators. As a nonprofit ourselves, CNE is a partner-practitioner with nonprofits and achieving our mission when we shorten the learning curve for nonprofits – when nonprofits do nott have to recreate the wheel – and when nonprofits are connected to the CNE programs, services and resources they need, when they need them.

Do not miss it! Join us for a webinar with CNE, “Nonprofit Board Fundamentals” from noon-1 p.m. on Nov. 14!

CNE is proud to partner with Virginia Main Street. With over 300 members and partnerships throughout Virginia, CNE is the region’s nonprofit resource center and has built a dynamic community of practice founded on the belief that strong nonprofits are essential to strong communities.
