Elevate NP & PACE announce partnership to increase access to nonprofit consultants in SWPA!
Elevate NP and Program to Aid Citizen Enterprise (PACE) have announced a new partnership to enhance and expand how nonprofit organizations across southwestern Pennsylvania find vetted, high-quality consulting partners to help with strategy, fundraising, communications, financial management, and more.
PACE has developed and operates a directory of dozens of vetted consultants across multiple categories of nonprofit capacity building. In early 2026, Elevate NP launched its Navigation service to connect nonprofits with capacity-building resources, including consultants with diverse subject matter expertise. Our partnership will leverage each organization’s strengths.
As part of our collaboration with PACE, we’re launching two brief surveys to help shape how we connect nonprofit leaders and consultants. Your voice will directly shape the resources, training, and support we provide in the future.
Both surveys take just a few minutes, and the deadline to respond is October 31st.
Nonprofit Survey
Have you worked with a consultant or are considering hiring one? Your input will help us tailor how we connect with and built a stronger ecosystem of consultants.
Consulting Survey
Are you a consultant serving nonprofits in our region? Help us learn about you, how organizations can connect with you, and what resources we can provide to support your work.
