Nonprofit Allies

What is a Nonprofit Ally?

The National Council’s Nonprofit Allies are nonprofit organizations that provide capacity building resources, such as training, programs and services, to nonprofits in a state where there is not a State Association Member of the National Council of Nonprofits.

Affiliation as a Nonprofit Ally

In states where there is no State Association member of the National Council of Nonprofits, the National Council invites the affiliation of nonprofit organizations that provide capacity building resources to other nonprofits in their state. Nonprofit allies become affiliated with the National Council upon acceptance of their application and payment of annual dues to the National Council. For more information about the application process, please contact Jennifer Chandler.

Benefits of Nonprofit Ally Affiliation

Nonprofit Allies of the National Council are part of a vibrant network of more than 24,000 nonprofit organizations across the country. Nonprofit Allies stay informed about public policy issues affecting nonprofits through national teleconference policy briefings on laws and regulations that present advocacy opportunities and challenges for nonprofits nationally, and in the states. Nonprofit Allies also receive e-newsletters and Special Reports from the National Council, as well as early alerts and periodic communications just for Nonprofit Ally affiliates of the National Council.

  • Participate in monthly Policy Forum calls with staff of the National Council and peer organizations around the country;
  • Receive special Nonprofit Ally eblast alerts from the National Council about information critical for the nonprofits in your state (the content of which you can share with your members or grantees.)
  • Reduced registration rate for the National Council’s knowledge-sharing webinars (this rate may be extended to your members/grantees);
  • As available, National Council staff may present at your annual conference (actual travel costs and a reduced rate honorarium will be needed to defray the National Council’s expenses).
  • Nonprofit Allies of the National Council are listed on the National Council’s website with a link to their home page.
