In a recent survey of nonprofit organizations in the South Puget Sound area, NonProfit Solutions learned that 72% of the respondents “would be more likely to take advantage of outsourced services if there was a more economical way of doing so”.

NonProfit Solutions has addressed this need by designing an economical membership plan called the Stargazer Club. It is a great way for non-profit organizations to economically outsource the important development activities faced by many organizations today!

If you are looking to find a way to affordably invest in outside consulting services to assist your organization with strategic planning, fundraising and feasibility studies, or organizational assessments, NonProfit Solutions has designed the perfect membership plan for you.

The Stargazer Club is designed to provide an efficient, simple, affordable way to turn budget friendly investments into a bank of consulting time that can be used for a variety of important services that your organization can utilize at anytime.
