Testimonials

The benefits received through the various training sessions I have attended include achieving a greater understanding of subject material, having important questions answered, and gaining the knowledge of what other agencies are facing and how we might be able to help each other out. The services and programs offered by the NPP are of great value to our organization. Many of the speakers and seminars we have attended would either not have been available to our group or would have been cost prohibitive for us to engage in.
Our organization has worked with the NPP separately from attending training/workshop sessions. We have had the privilege to work with Mr. Wooler and Miss. Flick quite recently on a program promoting youth involvement in promoting healthy relationships. I am thrilled and honored that they are easily accessible and helpful in our planning and organization of this program and in helping us connect with other nonprofits to make the project successful.

The Nonprofit Partnership (NPP) is a trusted organization with a professional and approachable staff which is committed to helping nonprofits specifically and is well known for hosting top-notch professional development sessions and events. The training sessions that the organization provides help me keep up with new developments in the world of nonprofit management. I enjoy the wide variety of live training sessions the NPP offers because they provide opportunities to interact and share thoughts with peers. The live sessions also allow me to ask the expert my most pressing questions relevant to my organization.
The cost of NPP membership is so affordable when you take into consideration what I feel is the key value proposition for joining, which is the variety and number of excellent member services offered. Local nonprofits are so fortunate to have access to a leadership organization like the Nonprofit Partnership that is looking out for their best interests.

With the help of The Nonprofit Partnership, Bethel Christian School has become aware of the areas within our organization that require change and how to reasonably make these changes. In addition, all the traning sessions are great and the NPP staff is very friendly and supportive. At this time I feel that the sessions and meetings regarding our communications makeover have been the most valuable to Bethel Christian School.
The Bethel Christian School Administrator, David Miles, myself, and the BCS School Board are all tremendously excited about our communications makeover that NPP is developing with us. Our school has been in existence for 40 years and is in need of a new "face." Amanda has worked many hours with focus groups and creating a survey in order to determine the positive qualities and needs of BCS. This information has been very useful in developing our makeover and also our marketing strategy.
My experience working with Amanda through the BCS communications makeover process has been more meaningful than I can describe. She is extremly knowledgable and helpful. She works late and goes out of her way to accommodate my schedule or the Board members' schedules. She explains things thoroughly and does not look down on me when I don't completely understand a concept. She keeps everything in confidence however she is ready to give a forthright opinion when asked. Also, Bob Wooler has always been more than helpful with any need that I have made known to him. I whole heartedly endorse The Nonprofit Partnership and all that this organization does for the Erie community.
