Find the Non-Profit that Fits Your Passion and Pitch In

When it comes to non-profit organizations, Melodie Stoligrosz, regional consultant for Ministry Ventures, has worked with a great many of them.

Providing resources and coaching for faith-based non-profit ministry leaders, Ministry Ventures offers coaching and training around five key areas that enable ministries to become sustainable organizations. These Five Best Practices include Ministry Model, Fundraising, Board Development, Administration and Prayer.

In order to maintain high standards, Ministry Ventures offers a certification program, Ministry Mastery™, for those who complete the coaching requirements. They also offer online coaching and training programs.

From her experience, Stoligrosz said they are always looking for committed volunteers.
