Mission

Compass forges lasting ties between local nonprofits and local business professionals to empower thriving, equitable, resilient communities.

Our Model

Compass is singularly committed to serving the nonprofit sector.  We believe nonprofits serve a critical role in our local communities, and Compass is here to help them do what they do better.

Compass delivers strategic guidance to nonprofits in a growing number of cities across the U.S. For almost two decades, we have viewed the strategic challenges of nonprofit leaders as our own, tapping into the wealth of talent within the business community to deliver the best of business – in terms of both people and practices – to local nonprofits. Compass partners with local professionals who advise local nonprofits, and guide them toward strategic excellence.

Why We Do What We Do

At Compass, we believe our cities should thrive, not just survive. Our goal is to enrich the communities we serve with stronger nonprofits supported by highly-skilled and engaged volunteers. We partner with nonprofit leaders and business professionals alike, creating ever-deepening connections between the two. Together, we make our cities and communities stronger.
