Partnering with Sustainable Connections
We work with many organizations to accomplish shared goals. We recognize that we are but one part of the puzzle, and we value powerful partnerships.
Good partnerships for us:
- Are project based and directly in line with our areas of focus and the goals we have committed to achieve in our strategic plan
- Share a common goal
- Have a plan for developing the funds that ensure all partners can pay their staff for project work, (We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. 20% of our budget comes from membership, the rest is earned program revenue, contracts, donations, and grants)
- Create synergy without unnecessary redundancies in skills, abilities, audience, etc. (This helps minimize too much overlapping core expertise on a project)
- Involve each partner working collaboratively on the vision and “ends” outcomes, but with responsibility and autonomy on the “means” for each entity’s part(s) of the project
