IFF's Stronger Nonprofits Initiative

Funded through a grant from JPMorgan Chase, the Stronger Nonprofits Initiative aims to provide nonprofits led by and/or deeply serving people of color with the technical assistance and capital they need to become financially stronger, build their net assets, and succeed on their own terms. IFF is administering the program in partnership with Fiscal Management Associates.
