GNPSC is a capacity-building nonprofit working to maximize our organizational reach and impact by developing underserved low and moderate-income visionaries who are leading early-stage nonprofit and small business initiatives. We provide business and professional services that assist in transitioning early-stage work into sustainable operations. Memberships allow our staff to meet each member where they are in their individual journeys and support attainment of their community and/or economic development goals and missions. The results of our work trickles down to collectively impact hundreds of individuals, families/households locally or thousands statewide as members provide sustainable community-based services, employment, volunteer, and job training opportunities.
Grow Institute, our training division, addresses the need for grassroots access to educational and technical assistance as part of the developmental process, in a culturally safe and technology rich environment. Our program framework (developed by our Founder & Executive Director based upon 27 years in the nonprofit and entrepreneurship space) features a library of proprietary training products which systematically delivers business and management-focused training; and standardized operating tools and management resources are integrated to expose student entrepreneurs up to 24-months of extensive real-time practicum experiences and activities designed to drive businesses forward one stop at a time. The Institute's purpose is to facilitate administration and management of all educational courses, training programs/activities, and student services.
