COVID-19 has caused budgets to shrink, not just for nonprofits, but for corporations too. Fortunately, there are still plenty of opportunities to partner with businesses and executives to get pro bono support for your organization! This week on the Nonprofit Jenni Show, we\\u2019re talking about best practices for navigating relationships as your nonprofit collaborates with corporations.

Before we dig into tips for pro bono relationships, Jenni shares info about her new COVID-19 Awareness Kits which can help your nonprofit protect seniors, people living in long-term care facilities, and people with underlying health conditions that make them especially vulnerable to the virus. Go to nonprofitjenni.com/coursesandmore to find the free and full versions of this kit, which both include four tools to help you spread awareness about how to stop transmission of COVID-19.

First, Danielle Holly (CEO of Common Impact) talks about how her nonprofit organization helps connect charitable corporations with small nonprofits in need. She explains the importance of cross-sector partnerships and highlights some resources for nonprofits to identify potential pro bono partners. Danielle is also on the boards of directors for Fan4Kids (fan4kids.org) and Women in Innovation (womenininnovation.co).
