Jericho Road Worcester (JRW) is a new nonprofit founded by leaders from First Unitarian and First Baptist churches. We provide a range of skill-based volunteer services to local nonprofits. For example:
· A health and social services agency for poor families needs to standardize some of their operating procedures. This nonprofit could benefit from a volunteer who can research and write documentation in a timely manner.
· A conservation organization needs someone with marketing/fundraising expertise to help them re-assess and expand their outreach to the Worcester community. The organization has a great “brand” and a dynamic leader ready to get to work on what promises to be a creative project.
· A database expert can make a huge impact in a short time, helping an affordable housing nonprofit improve their fundraising database; coaching them on how run queries and reports.
· Nonprofit leaders work grueling hours to keep their organizations solvent and accountable to their missions. Many would appreciate occasional coaching from professionals who can help them sort out a thousand ideas, concerns, and initiatives; helping them to stay strategic in their planning and encouraging them to take care of themselves.
If you would like to add your professional skills to the JRW roster, or if you know of a local nonprofit that can benefit from JRW, please contact Deborah Wild, Program Director at dwild@jerichoroadproject.org, 617-633-9939.
