Background on you and/or your business:
Whether you seek nonprofit management services, for-profit business planning, fundraising, or professional growth services, LAPA is deeply committed to helping you make the changes you desire. We firmly believe that a healthy society requires three sectors: a public sector of government, a private sector of business, and a social sector of community organizations.
We work to establish well researched, cultivated and diverse revenue sources and often work to integrate private sector strategies with public and nonprofit values. LAPA can manage your foundation and corporate fund raising from our offices, delivering quality outreach, proposal writing, and reporting to funders on behalf of your organization in an efficient, cost-effective way.
Testimonials and/or references:
“Contracting with LAPA allowed our small Church to generate the revenue we needed for our outreach programs. That was eight years ago, and the relationship is still going strong. In order to make our grants stronger, we asked LAPA to conduct a community needs assessment to see if our programming was still viable. The result was a plan of action that has lasted for many years. Their sensitivity to the language of faith and social ministry has been an added benefit. ” —The Rev. Donna Dambrot, The Church of St. Luke in The Fields
“My experience working with LAPA has been great. Since 2001, Harlem United has outsourced its private grants to LAPA and has seen excellent performance. Our funding from foundations and corporate givers increased markedly. LAPA has generated over four times more money than the cost of their contract. Outsourcing has made perfect sense for us. With LAPA I get a higher level of performance at a lower cost than with an in-house development team. ” —Patrick McGovern, Executive Director, Harlem United
