IRS990/Desc0Capacity Building - Communities Rise provides capacity building services to nonprofit organizations serving communities of color. We focus on Black, Indigenous and people-of-color led nonprofits who serve communities of color or other communities impacted by systemic oppression. Our capacity building services include a 9-month Nonprofit Capacity Building Cohort, which provides individual coaching, peer-to-peer learning, workshops, accomplishing capacity building goals for 8-10 nonprofit organizations. In 2021, CR hosted two cohorts, one for orgs located in the City of Seattle and one in partnership with King County's Communities of Opportunity. We also provide free technical assistance on nonprofit fundraising and grant writing to nonprofits through our regularly held fundraising and grant writing clinics. CR also provides grant writing TA to potential grantees, in partnership with government funders. In response to the stresses of the Covid-19 Pandemic, we provided wellness workshops to BIPOC leaders and participated in several community collaborations addressing the inequity of the nonprofit funding system.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0For Small Businesses and Nonprofit Legal Services: Communities Rise seeks to advance equity by providing pro bono legal services to nonprofits and low-income small business owners who would not otherwise afford or have access to legal services.
