Acting Together to Build Nonprofit Capacity

The sage advice, “we can do more together, then apart” has echoed in the minds of leaders throughout philanthropic history. The idea of collaboration is intriguing, often yielding incredible benefits for communities, return on investment for funders, and expansion of services for partners.
