STOP US IF ANY OF THIS SOUNDS FAMILIAR...
-
You've got a great idea for how to affect change in your community, but you don't know where to start or how to transform that idea into a nonprofit...
-
You've spent countless hours putting together your budget for next year, but you aren't sure how to plan around COVID and how it will affect your nonprofit's programs, funds or resources...
-
You’ve got a fundraising campaign up and running, but the money isn’t coming in like it used to and you’re out of fresh ideas for attracting (and retaining) more donors…
-
You work in a virtual silo, trying to stay on top of the seemingly endless list of tasks and responsibilities you juggle, and you’re starting to burn out.

You work in a virtual silo, trying to stay on top of the seemingly endless list of tasks and responsibilities you juggle, and you’re starting to burn out.
If it does, then you already know what a struggle it can be trying to find quality information & support.
We've talked to hundreds of nonprofit executive directors, fundraisers and aspiring founders just like you who feel frustrated, overwhelmed or are on the verge of burnout due to:
-
A lack of practical, accessible and up-to-date resources that explain in easy-to-understand language how to turn your nonprofit idea into a plan...
-
Overly technical tutorials and endless Zoom webinars that bore you to death and leave you with more questions than answers...
-
Over-priced courses and consultants that make big claims about helping you build capacity and sustainability--just as long as you already have a huge staff and massive budget...
-
Facebook groups that promise support and solutions for nonprofit professionals, but are, in reality, platforms for self promotion or rant sessions filled with frustrated fundraisers.

Some of Our Members
Here's what some nonprofit leaders are saying about membership in The Launchpad.
Being a CEO can be a lonely job. But since becoming a Member, I’ve never been on my own. The support has been one of the most valuable aspects of my membership! Not only have I received fantastic advice and resources, but I am constantly in touch with other members who understand the struggles of running a nonprofit and can celebrate the wins with me.
Starting a nonprofit had always been a dream of mine, but I had so many questions. I wanted to make sure I was doing everything the right way and the best way. CNA has supported me 100% along this journey and today I’m living my dream!
Becoming a Member has turned me into a fundraiser! The portal is packed with valuable checklists, resources and materials and I am constantly learning new things. And I love that they share what is working in fundraising right now, not just what has worked in the past.

Is The Launchpad for You?
Membership in The Launchpad is NOT for everyone, and we’d like to help you figure that out
before you join. We have a vested interest in your success and we want you to become raving
fans of The Launchpad just like we are of all our Members So, let’s cut to the chase...
-
THE LAUNCHPAD IS FOR YOU IF:
-
- You are an Executive Director who works long hours, wears many hats and needs access to the latest industry information whenever... wherever...you're at.
-
- You are a Fundraiser who wants to take the guesswork out of what’s working right now and who needs fresh ideas, tips and strategies to raise more funds for your nonprofit today.
-
- You a nonprofit leader who works remotely, at times feels disconnected, and craves the connection of a like-minded community who speaks your language.
-
- You are a dedicated nonprofit professional who puts everything you have into the cause and clients you care about...but who has little left for anything (or anyone) else.
-
THE LAUNCHPAD IS NOT FOR YOU IF:
-
- You are looking to take from a community more than you are willing to give. There is a balance, to be sure. But this is a Membership comprised of amazing nonprofit leaders whose time and support is invaluable.
-
- You are not committed to taking action and applying the valuable tips, ideas and strategies you will receive inside the Membership portal. We only want people who are committed to growth inside this community of pathfinders, ground breakers and trailblazers!
-
- You look for excuses instead of solutions. Being a change maker is hard work. But we believe making a positive impact on the world is worth it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have some questions? We've got some answers....
What type of nonprofit professionals does The Launchpad serve?
The Membership portal features online training and resources focused on starting, growing, funding, promoting and scaling a nonprofit organization. The majority of members are Executive Directors/CEO's, Aspiring Nonprofit Founders, Directors of Development, Fundraisers and Major Gifts Officers.
That said, much of our content is relevant to other nonprofit professionals including Board Members and those who want to expand their skills or level up in their career.
What exactly do I get?
Momentum Members get access to The Launchpad's online training and membership portal that is jam-packed with toolkits, checklists, how-to videos, ebooks and information you can use to make a difference for your nonprofit TODAY.
Membership also includes entry into our private, Members-only Facebook Group, "Propel Your Purpose," where you can ask questions, exchange ideas, get feedback and collaborate and celebrate with others.
The Launchpad covers topics related to four (4) main flight paths:
- Launching a Nonprofit
- Scaling a Nonprofit
- Funding a Nonprofit
- Promoting a Nonprofit
We have also recently added an additional flight path, "Crisis Management for Nonprofits," to address nonprofit management topics related to COVID-19.
Topics in the portal include leadership, fundraising, nonprofit branding and marketing, media relations, sustainability, the development of human and material resources, Board recruitment and retention, volunteer management and more.
Is all of the content available right away or is it time-released (drip fed?)
You get immediate access to everything inside the Membership portal AS SOON AS you join! No waiting for content to be released to you; just jump in after you receive the email from us with your login information and get started.
In addition, we update and add new materials EVERY WEEK, so your digital content library is always growing.
Can I get one-on-one help and support?
Absolutely! Not only can you ask questions and get advice, support and feedback anytime within our private, Members-only Facebook group ("Propel Your Purpose"), but we also host weekly FB Live Q&A sessions where you can pre-submit your questions or ask them live.
I haven't gotten off the ground yet with my nonprofit. Is The Launchpad right for me?
The Launchpad has multiple flight paths for planning, creating and growing a nonprofit organization--from the very start when all you have is an idea and a passion for your cause. In fact, now is the perfect time for you to join The Launchpad! Learn the things to do (and not do) to save yourself time, energy and money. Plus, get support and advice from within our private FB group community to help you launch successfully.
What if I am a career nonprofit leader?

Why should I become a Member today instead of waiting?
