Money Multiplied. Change Amplified.
Building Sustainable Progressive Power
Power belongs in the hands of the people, those who progressive nonprofits serve, advocate for, and organize with. Organized people coupled with organized money create power in a democracy. The Progressive Multiplier is part of a sea change in philanthropy, where the impact of it is not limited by the dollars that can be given out but multiplied by investing in financing models that enable nonprofits to scale and sustain their independent revenue.
Why Focus on Independent Revenue Generation?
Our research finds
Progressive nonprofits tend to rely heavily on foundation funding, but are testing Independent Revenue Generation (IRG) techniques.
Revenue generation funding to scale their successful tactics is practically non-existent.
Successes aren't widely shared and adopted as standard, leaving money on the table for the progressive movement.
Nonprofits seek revenue mechanisms that help them generate (C)(4) funds to mitigate the boom and bust cycle.
Our Programs
The Catalyst provides hands-on technical assistance and funding that helps groups build the catalytic capacities needed for revenue acceleration or revitalization. It also supports groups in implementing independent revenue generation best practices like launching a monthly donor program.
At The Lab, we invest in groups to test fundraising ideas that expand our movement IRG knowledge base that can significantly boost their revenue streams. We offer resources to experiment, innovate, and refine tactics that drive sustainable financial growth.
The Convergence is designed to accelerate impact across the movement by pooling collective IRG knowledge and the experiences of our movement. This portal unites progressive groups in a shared mission to amplify IRG strategies, by building a collaborative environment.
These findings give us a blueprint for how to help build the revenue generation skill and structure needed for progressive nonprofits to scale for the future.
OUR APPROACH TAKES FOUR KEY DIRECTIONS:
Revenue Generation Training
Leverage the intuitive super awesome software that saves you time and will help grow your business.
Strategic Assistance
Subgrants with ongoing, flexible, hands-on consultation and partnership from expert fundraisers for revenue projects & (C)(4) & pac rev-gen funding program
