What nonprofits turn to Catchafire for help 

Decision-making

Nonprofit leaders often feel they need to handle everything themselves, but that’s not sustainable. Catchafire equips staff members with the skills and resources they need to succeed. The outcome? Delegation becomes easier—and more effective.

Prevents burnout

Sometimes the internal workarounds to fill gaps end up being more energetically expensive. At the end of the day, there are tasks that a skilled volunteer can be doing so nonprofit staff stay focused on areas where the organization is relying on them to be the subject matter expert.

Accelerated growth

Catchafire's product and program help nonprofit leaders create efficient, sustainable processes and programs that lead
to growth and long-term impact for the communities they serve.

Professional development

Working alongside experts is a win-win. Work gets done and nonprofits get personalized coaching that can span upskilling to essential soft skills such as communication, conflict resolution, decision-making, and team-building 

“Catchafire has expanded our skills and capacity. Offering the additional support of Catchafire has been great professional development as a bonus!”

Frequently asked questions

Who are the Nonprofit Advisors?

Catchafire’s Nonprofit Advisors are seasoned experts in nonprofit operations, strategy, and capacity building. They provide 1:1 guidance to organizations on how to make the most of their Catchafire experience—from identifying their biggest needs to scoping high-impact projects. Their goal is to help nonprofits build the skills and infrastructure to thrive long after the engagement ends.

What is the needs assessment tool?

Our needs assessment tool is a guided experience designed to help nonprofits quickly identify their most pressing organizational needs. It helps staff reflect on current capacity gaps—across areas like marketing, operations, finance, and more—and translates those into actionable, pre-scoped projects that skilled volunteers can support.

What does a needs report look like?

A needs report summarizes the nonprofit’s top capacity-building priorities and maps them to potential volunteer support opportunities. It includes project recommendations, skill areas in demand, and a snapshot of readiness. Funders can use aggregated needs reports to spot trends, surface common challenges across their portfolio, and direct support where it's needed most.
