Thriving Non-Profits is thrilled to announce the strategic partnership with Coast Capital, aimed at bolstering non-profit sustainability across Canada!

Non-profit organizations and charities are on the frontlines of solving today’s most complex challenges and creating vibrant communities that are equitable and have opportunities for all. Thriving Non-Profits, a financial capacity-building program developed by Scale Collaborative, informed by over 750 non-profit leaders, and dedicated to empowering non-profit leaders in Canada with entrepreneurial thinking and revenue diversification, continues to expand across Canada through a strategic partnership with Coast Capital.

“When organizations diversify revenue, they can plan for the future, because when one stream of revenue goes down, another stream is there to balance it out,” said Kristi Rivait, Director of Partnerships and Programs at Scale Collaborative. “Thriving Non-Profits is developed by non-profit leaders for non-profit leaders. We see that when organizations go through the program, they can become resilient. They can invest in their operations, their staff, and increase the incredible, critical work they do in the community, to care for all people and the planet.”

Coast Capital is building on a partnership it has held with Scale Collaborative and the Thriving Non-Profits program since 2019. This next step in the partnership is in response to the growing difficulties Canadians are facing, such as housing costs, food insecurity, and the impacts of inflation. These situations greatly increase the demands on non-profits and charities As presenting partner of the program, Coast Capital is supporting more organizations from across Canada to access expertise, financial knowledge, education, tools, and training that is proven to help them become financially resilient, support their teams, and create greater impact in the communities they serve.

“As a social purpose organization, Coast Capital is committed to building better futures for our employees, members and communities through unlocking financial opportunities,” explains Tanya Smith, Manager, Social Purpose Ecosystems at Coast Capital. “This partnership with Thriving Non-Profits really brings that purpose to life by equipping non-profit leaders with the tools they need to ensure the long-term success and sustainability of these community organizations that are so imperative to strong and resilient communities.”

The transformational program is garnering widespread acclaim for its innovative approach to financial leadership training and its proven track record of equipping non-profits to thrive in an ever-changing landscape. The partnership supports non-profits and charities across Canada in the important work they do to address our most complex challenges and create vibrant communities where everyone belongs and has the opportunity to thrive.
