The solution is simple but powerful
Create regional nonprofit funds across Louisiana to support long-term, collaborative efforts that tackle tough challenges facing children and families. Housed in community foundations and guided by local expertise, these funds make giving more efficient by pooling resources, cutting costs, and encouraging teamwork over competition. To make it happen, we need private, corporate, and government partners willing to invest in lasting, high-impact change.
Take the challenge & make a pitch together
We identify outstanding nonprofit teams through a rigorous selection process culminating with the Northshore Collective Impact Challenge, a pitch event. Once selected, winners receive multi-year capital investments to ensure long-term success. Additionally, the teams need to demonstrate how they plan to create sustained recurring revenue, earned income, or funding source in the future. As these initiatives thrive, they serve as prototypes for future pitch winners—creating a cycle of proven, scalable solutions. To achieve this, we need creative, entrepreneurial financing that goes beyond traditional one-time gifts to foster lasting impact.
