Success Stories
See how we've helped Twin Cities nonprofits and grassroots organizations overcome challenges and achieve their goals.
Challenge:
Osseo Hoopsters, a community booster club, sought strategic planning to build sustainable parent-led committees, strengthen board management, create bylaws, achieve tax- exempt status, enhance fundraising, and actively engage parents and community for lasting support.
Solution:
Foundation Elevation delivered clear bylaws, a comprehensive procedures manual, an annual organizational calendar, coordinated fundraising and community outreach efforts, created efficient templates, advised on board roles, and provided compliance and safety education to ensure integrity and accountability.
Outcome:
The Booster Club now operates with strong governance, consistent volunteer engagement, and effective fundraising systems. This allowed them to raise funds for equipment, transportation, and program needs — while fostering a safe and supportive environment for student-athletes.
Forward Thinking Foundation
Established Non-Profit Community Organization
Ready to Elevate?
Challenge:
Although a newer nonprofit, Forward Thinking Foundation recognized the need for consistent volunteers and community supporters, stronger promotion, access to funding, and intentional board development, along with a commitment to operating in continual compliance to ensure sustainable growth and long-term success.
Solution:
Foundation Elevation connected the founder to a cohort offering education, tools, mentors, and networking, while providing consistent support through events, registrations, and tournaments, along with ongoing promotion, collaboration opportunities, and participant recruitment.
Outcome:
Forward Thinking became grant-ready with a stronger organizational foundation. They gained the documents, strategies, and support needed to approach funders with confidence and began building partnerships that positioned them for long-term sustainability.
Challenge:
It Takes a Village MN sought support to document program time, ensure policies and procedures were accurate and current, and identify innovative strategies to strengthen their nonprofit. Having grown organically, the organization initially prioritized direct service over building internal structure.
Solution:
Foundation Elevation provided the founder with a structured knowledge path to train staff on documentation and invoicing, improving operational efficiency and financial accuracy. Support also included exposure to collaborations, community leaders, and mentors, along with tools and coaching to drive organizational growth.
Outcome:
It Takes a Village MN strengthened operations with tailored support. Foundation Elevation provided collaboration connections, branding coaching, and document support, while guiding the founder to gain confidence and grant writing skills—ensuring long-term sustainability and independence.
