Session Overview
Our small international sister city nonprofit has been unable to fulfill our mission for several years and was planning to dissolve when we received a large bequest. We want to take advantage of this windfall to benefit our community partners, but to do so, we will need to re-evaluate our mission, restructure our programs and recruit a new board. At this stage, we need help with thinking through how to do all of this. Expertise in tiny grassroots nonprofits, Latin American community development, and changes of mission would be welcome! http://dospueblosny.org/
Nonprofit Overview
Dos Pueblos, the New York-Tipitapa Sister City Project, is a non-profit organization that works collaboratively with the people of Nicaragua to improve community development through projects of education, nutrition, health promotion, cross-cultural and educational exchanges, environmental health, and human rights. By cultivating relationships between our communities, we seek to move toward globalization based on respect, understanding, and diversity of perspectives.
