Nonprofits are drowning in complexity.
Weak operations can impact your mission
You’re onboarding new staff without clear systems
Your team doesn’t have the expertise you need to effectively manage your finances
Your fiscal sponsor is slowing you down, or your organization is outgrowing its structure
You’re constantly putting out fires instead of building toward the future
Strong systems can unlock potential!
After working with BCC, organizations feel:
Clearer about who’s doing what, and how
Prepared because policies are in place before problems arise
More connected with staff and partners—because your structure supports your values
Mission-focused, not admin-burdened
“Big Change Consulting is a dream come true for nonprofit organizations trying to juggle it all with strained budgets and capacity.”
— Rebecca Wiggins, Executive Director, Association for Financial Counseling & Planning Education
