NONPROFITS AND SOCIAL IMPACT
The MISSION of the American Nonprofit Academy is to bring education, leadership, connectivity and collaboration to the community of nonprofits and social impact organizations.
The VISION of the American Nonprofit Academy is to educate and connect stakeholders in nonprofit and socially impactful organizations with low cost educational opportunities. This includes the involvement of staff, founders, funders, donors, volunteers, social investors, corporate partners and government.
The VALUES of the American Nonprofit Academy orient communities towards building sustainable approaches to philanthropy. Education, connectivity and collaboration are the key values that move the American Nonprofit Academy towards its goals.
OUR SOCIAL VENTURE STORY
The American Nonprofit Academy is a vibrant and essential community for those dedicated to making a positive impact through nonprofit, charitable and social venture organizations. We come from a wide range of places and backgrounds, but we share a belief that each day can be better than the last, and that America is a place where anyone can make a difference, no matter their position or status. As a community of nonprofit professionals and leaders, we embrace the opportunity to think outside the box and to try new things, always with the goal of doing what has not been done before or doing things better.
Our platform is not a one-stop solution for every problem that an organization might encounter. However, we strive to be a valuable tool on your journey, providing access to knowledge, expertise, and support from a diverse group of experts in various mission-specific fields. We also offer a range of news and information, including national, local, and foundation news, to keep you informed about the big picture in the social sector. And through our live national broadcast, The Nonprofit Show, you can stay up-to-date on the actions of your peers, donors, volunteers, clients, and even competitors.
At the American Nonprofit Academy, we understand that your work is driven by a sense of purpose and that it requires compassion, creativity, and commitment. Your success is not measured by how much money you make, but by the lives you touch and the families and communities you help. That’s why we take seriously the responsibility of providing learning and connection opportunities for our community. We hope you will find the American Nonprofit Academy valuable and that you will continue to engage with us and share your feedback to help us improve and grow. Remember, by staying well, you can do well and make a lasting difference in the world.
